Default Bowl Batting

I was wondering what kind of batting is suitable for the micro?

Warm & Natural makes a 100% cottom batting specifically for the Microwave. Do NOT use the Warm & Natural batting that is generally used for quilting. It has a poly film in between the cotton layers that I never knew was there.

I'm gonna try it with wool batting. It should not have any problem w/ the microwave. I think that these will make wonderful Christmas presents! Thanks!

I was wondering the same.. I would have to order the batting online and need to do these next week...would flannel do?

Wondering mind has got to know -- lol

This was a GREAT tutorial!! Thank you!! I made one yesterday. I took a leftover block that I had made then some plain fabric for the back. I love it!! Didn't realize until I got it all done that my block had one of the fabrics switched. BUT>>>>as my 14 year old son pointed out-that will just be the front Mom!! LOL! I'll share a picture. I just love it! The kids don't want me to give it away. LOL!
