Default Quilters Dream Puff Batting?

Does anyone here have any experience with Quilter's Dream Puff batting? http://www.quiltersdreambatting.com/dream-puff.htm

It sounds pretty interesting, and I'm thinking of giving it a try for a queensize top I'm working on.

Not that particular one but the wool and select I have used I like alot. I am using Dream more and more, I think Warm and Natural has gotten over priced and thinner !!

I have not, but it sounds about perfect for me... I'll have to look into it more.... I love making pouffy quilts, but don't like the high loft poly batting...

the dream puff is good for tied quilts- or big stitch- channel quilting- it is quite lofty so a bit difficult to use for (normal) quilting with a domestic machine- it's a bit easier with a long arm-but you need to really lengthen the stitch

I have not used the puff batting but I love the cotton, it needles so nice. I use it behind my hand embroidery, gives a nice look and hides threads.

Thanks! This is good info to have. I'll do a bit of "test" quilting with it before I start on my actual quilt. I am wanting this quilt really lofty and warm, which is what lead me to this batting in the first place. My intention is to do a large open quilting motif (yet to be designed). I'll let you all know how it works out.
