A right or wrong side to poly batting?
First I will apologize for not knowing how to search for a topic on this website... I know this has been mentioned before, but I cannot remember something I read about there being a right or wrong side [up] for batting that has some kind of stabilizer -- needled? scrim? -- I do not know what these terms mean, but the writer said it made a difference to how the sandwich worked up. Can someone steer me? Thanks!

Not exactly sure of your question but this is what I got when I used "Advanced Search" and put in:
batting, poly, right side up

I don't think there is any right or wrong side with poly batting since it doesn't have a scrim. With W&N, I think it only makes a difference if you have a LA. But here is the info off of W&N website:

Right/wrong side only applies to natural fibers (cotton-wool-silk) or blends with those in them, when they are needle-punched or have a scrim applied.
Hand-carded & bonded fibers are the same on either side, as are synthetic batts (like polyester) and manufactured cellulose batts (like bamboo-rayon or blends with acetate).
