What is YOUR favorite quilt batting?

Why do YOU love it?

Is there anything you don’t like about it?

Have YOU ever used a batting that didn’t work for you? 

Why didn’t it work? 

Do YOU ever use flannel? What brand do you use? Where do you purchase it?

Do YOU ever layer batting?

How do YOU choose YOUR batting?

Have you tried a variety of batting fibers and manufacturers or do you stick with one?

Choosing Batting and The Quilting Roadmap Series

A few weeks ago, we began a series called the Quilting Roadmap.

My goal is to create a step-by-step guide to help you turn your quilt tops into finished quilts.

We want to take the fear out of the sentence “Quilt as desired”.

And help you overcome your fear that you will ruin your quilt with your quilting.

First Three Steps in The Quilting Roadmap

The first step is to hang your quilt vertically and take photos of it.

The second step is Choose an Approach to quilting.

The third step will be to Choose the Batting.  Before we get to that step, I think it’s important to understand the fibers and the  manufacturing process.

And it is helpful  to know a little more about YOUR batting choices.

I hope to summarize YOUR ideas in future articles about batting.

Join the Discussion

We’d LOVE to hear from YOU today!

Your Batty  Friend,

Lori
