Who makes black batting?

I make a lot of quilts (mostly Art quilts) with dark background fabric and want to use black batting. So far I've only been able to find Hobbs Heirloom 80/20. Are there any other manufacturers out there? Where do I buy it?

One I saw at Joanns, looked very bad, shaggy and very thin. I just couldn't bring myself to buy it.

Connecting Threads! I just placed an order this morning for many yards of the clearance fabric for backing ($3 a yard), Hobbs batting, and several quilt kits on clearance.

I've used (and liked) the Quilter's Dream black batting. Fabric.com carries it in two thicknesses and several sizes (assuming they're not sold out; they do sell out of it fairly frequently)
