I’m tired of thinking my quilt is too warm or too cold.
You must be in a cooler climate than I am. I about die if I try to wear wool. I used to wear it before menopause but could only do it a few times a year (when we have our "cold" weather). Now I rarely put on anything wool. It's just too hot for Houston's climate. I can't imagine using wool batting in a quilt for our weather here. I don't know anyone who uses it in this area.
