one thing to think about is poly is hypoallergenic.....not all babies can tolerate wool.

I just use what I do on any other quilt I make. Either the poly 6.6 0z or the Hobbs 80/20. It will be washed more often than normal quilts and these battings hold up well.

I use warm and natural also. I like the 100% cotton or the 80/20. Both work well.

Thank you to all of you. I will use 100% cotton batting. Possibly warm and natural. One more questions. The warm and natural come off the roll double. Should I use just one side or use the double side.

Thanks again for your help.

You would not want to use Warm and Natural doubled; it will make a small quilt too stiff.

I use Warm and natural. I really prefer a cotton batting.

For a floor quilt or one to be used later as a lap quilt I like warm and natural. For a small quilt to cover new born I like mountain mist. Sometimes I use Hobbs 80/20.I think warm and natural is heavy and thick. The mountain mist polly is overal well recieved and has some tactile apeal. The warm and natural can sure take the beating though. I always kid and say after 50 yrs the fabric will be gone but the batting warm and natural will be left.

On most projects I use Warm and White.

Today I got a close up look at Luna quilt batts. They have a crib size that's hypoallergenic. They're so soft and beautiful drape and very low loft so easy to wrap that baby in it.

I think my next project, I'll try one of the Luna batts, maybe wool.

I use Hobbs 80/20 for everything

I use Thermore by Hobbs for almost everything. I love the way it handles and it is the warmest bat. Around here, quilts need to be warm. In a warmer climate, a cotton-poly blend would be fine. Some people prefer a high loft quilt. I like wool bats, but they are not warmer and are more expensive. what you need to decide is what you want from your batting.
