The ultimate batting is silk, but it is very pricy. I'm making a silk jacket and using this batting for hand quilting.
Thank you for mentioning that, I was going to as well. Please no poly for children!!! And, honestly I won't use it at all for that reason. It will melt on an adult just as easily, so unless the quilt is for something other than sleeping under, no poly for me.
