    I used 8 oz poly. I buy it from Marshall Dry Goods in a big roll. My quilting club uses it too and all our people we quilt for love it. It is very fluffy and holds up well. Thank you all for all the wonderful comments, sure makes me feel good !!!

    Have never seen a DWR quite like this one! The use of yellow is always great in a quilt as it brings out all the other colors and I love that part! HQ is fantastic! Beautiful quilt!! :-D ;-) ;-)
