    I found Bamboo batting on sale for less than 3.00 yd. Are there any special treatments for this kind of batting? I have only used poly and warm and natural. Never used bamboo for batting. Thanks for any input :!:

    I LOVE BAMBOO BATTING!!! it is so very silky soft! i used Dream Bamboo from the Dream Batt company-
    nothing special to do to it- sandwich and quilt- following the recommended quilting density (some batts need to be quilted every 2", some you can have up to 10" apart- you need to quilt the way YOUR batting states is necessary.
    the 3 quilts i made with bamboo batting have held up wonderfully to multiple washing/drying and being lugged around every where my granddaughter's go...camping trips, road trips, sleep overs- they love their quilts - the bamboo batting is wonderful!

    Is it a good price for batting? I would use it more natural!
