Default batting

I have a question. Our church group makes comforters from used sheets for the local homeless shelters and womens shelter. we make 11 inch blocks to the top and plain sheets for the bottom.

We recently changed from warm and natural batting - 100% cotton to Pellon 80/20 - as there is a big difference in the price - and our budget is nonexistant.

we are having difficulty with the batting. when it is sewed and ready to turn, we are finding that the batting seems to have stretched and is larger than the top and bottom layer. we find we are ripping out about half of our blankets.

does anyone else have this issue? we don't know if it is the batting or the method in which the person putting it together is doing it.

thank you for your thoughts.

any suggestions?
