Multiple Batting Layers
Have you ever used multiple batting layers for your quilts?
I'm thinking of using THREE!! Has anyone done this? And am I crazy?
I'm doing this for multiple reasons...one, I want it to be thick without using high loft and two, my husband wants me to include a wool blanket INSIDE of the quilt I'm making him, so I'm counting that as a batting layer.
My plan is to quilt the top layer with the batting and then quilt the bottom layer with the batting... and then sandwich them together with the wool blanket and pretend that's my only batting. Will my machine break??? Will my sanity snap?? Should I hand stitch the three layers together instead??
Aaaaand....what about the binding? Can my machine handle that or will it take me a month to bind this sucker by hand?
