Thank- you all for giving me good information and ideas to try in the future. I will try several of these ideas and see how it works for me.

I normally use Quilter's Dream-Select...its warm and has a nice loft. I also tried their Deluxe which is a bit more dense, but it doesn't drape quite as nice. The select is very snuggly : )

This is great information.... Tkx

I was using W&N because I can buy it cheaper at Joann's. One day I couldn't buy it there, so I got some Quilter's Dream Request at my LQS. Love it! Give it a try. It fluffs up very nicely after washing/drying.

I love Warm and Natural batting, and hardly ever use anything else. It may not look like it, but it makes a nice, warm quilt to sleep under, but it won't be fluffy. So if you want fluffy, I'd go with a polyester batting.

warm and natural is very warm-love it.i prefer the flatter look of a 80/20 cotton/poly blend.I do not like trying to quilt the thicker polys-fabric shifts too much for my liking.

I use W&N in all my quilts. Its warm, if I need more warmth I use another quilt on top of it. One of my quilts has a heavier flannel for backing and W&N for batting its very warm, my Winter quilt. I agree with what the others have said, 2 layers would make for a very heavy quilt.

You could double layer it but it would be so heavy you probably couldn't lift it!

I call it "Warm and Naturally stiff as a board." Not only does it get stiff if you quilt it very close but it is so flat it doesn't give your quilting any definition at all. I use Quilter's Dream Select, Quilter's Dream poly or Hobb's Heirloom 80/20.

Try lots of different battings to find the ones you like for the look you want in your quilts.

I've been using a W&N quilt and just this week changed to a wool batting with flannel for the backing. I could tell the difference in warmth almost immediately the first night. It's not any heavier but it is much warmer.
