I am about to use this for the first time,can you tell me which side is the wrong side and which is right side---ie --does the smooth side face the backing??

I don't think it matters, at least I haven't ever worried about that and my quilts are fine when w & n is used.

never thought there was a right or wrong side..
both sides of the quilt will be equally cuddled on!

I woudn't think there was any right or wrong side to batting!

Gee - I never thought about this before. I just put it together and it always is ok :)

I follow what has been said on this board. "Salt & pepper" side up,
smoother side down. Not sure if it really matters but I prefer the
smoother side to touch my skin. ;)

there is no right and wrong side of batting, the batting just goes in the middle it is the same on both sides.

Most, but not all battings have a scrim on the wrong side. That side goes down next to the backing. Or so that's what I was told when I first got my LA.

When I first bought it, the clerk told me the smooth side goes down, so that is how I have always done it. I guess she told me wrong, thanks for the correction.
