I have a blue quilt and used warm and white batting but when I got the quilt back from the quilter, it was fuz all over the quilt. I am going to remake the quilt. Whatbatting do you suggest that I use so the quilt will not get all that fuz?
I need help badly. quilting baby |
I use the warm and natural all the time and don't get fuzzing. Did she actually use your provided batting? Maybe try washing it and see if it goes away. Taking out all that sewing will be a major project and you will weaken the fabric.

sorry i always use wandw no problems

i'm using it now and don't have any fuzz...'cept from the cat who thinks it's where she needs to sit :roll:
take a lint cleaner, masking tape, something to clean it up - it should be ok |
After having a bad experience with batting in a bag on the last quilt, I will only use batting cut from a roll from now on. It was so difficult to iron it to get the wrinkles out and then there were spots where it was much thinner than others. One area actually tore when I was unfolding it. I like thin batting so only use cotton. Everything I make is machine quilted.

i am buying it off the roll - not in the bad...

I have had 2 quilts quilted and I used what she had and it turned out great. Most professional quilters know what is best for your quilt

If you took W n N or W n W then your quilter loaded it upside down if you have batting fuzz on the quilt. I use one of the older brush lint removers and this does a really good job at removing that lint.
Your rule of thumb on any type of cotton or cotton blend batt is the bumpy side goes UP, slick or smooth side goes to the backing fabric. This info is provided to you by a longarm quilter. |
I used W&N almost exclusively and have never had a problem with lint. I got a great buy on cotton blend batting and I regret buying it every time I use it. It works fine within the quilt (no bearding at all) but it is the lintiest batting I've ever seen! I am using it as much as I can but the yardage doesn't seem to be shrinking at all. So lesson learned...a bargain is not always a bargain!! Next time I try a new product, I won't buy 10 yards of it!

I too only use warm and natural and have never had a problem
