Default Scrim Up or Down?

I can never remember. Pls tell me and I'll write it down. Does the scrim side of the batting face up or down in a quilt sandwich?

I use Hobbs cotton with scrim, and I find it's hard to tell which side has the scrim. I use that type of batting a lot, and never had a problem. I've probably used the scrim face up and face down, and never seen any difference in the finished product.

Personally, I wouldn't think it would matter but then I'm no expert when it comes to batting (or really anything else...)

I just watched a basting video and the lady said that she puts the scrim toward the top for best adhesion as scrim has a bit more "grab"
