Warm & Natural Quilted Muslin and Warm Window.

This is not an advertisement for the Warm Company. It just so happens that I use Warm & Natural Needled Cotton Batting for all my quilts, including crib quilts. Cotton Batt that does not beard is the safest batting you can use, especially for crib quilts. I feel the polyester battings have more potential for burning than cotton. Most all purchased crib blankets are filled with Polyester batt. It melts when burned, cotton smolders. Guess it is a personal choice.

They also have a blend.
The Warm and Natural and Warm and White is NOT 100 percent cotton , the fiber contents on the package state 12.5 % poly 87.5% cotton. The web site states that 100 % cotton fibers a punch through a thin base, that base is poly.
