    Default What batting to use?

    I'm working on a quilt for a customer who wants it to be heavy and really warm. What batting would you suggest?

    The Warm Company's Warm and Plush is heavy and warm.

    I love the feel of a W&N plush. You may find it to your liking.

    Are you quilting on a longarm? I stick to 80/20 because I quilt on my sewing machine.

    Quilters Dream Request. I've only used it once but it was quite heavy. I usually use Select because I like the hand.

    I like the Winlilne 80/20 double thick 6 oz. It has become my favorite.
