I think I'm going to try to machine quilt some with my sewing machine. What type or kind batting does anyone recommend? ~Abbigail~

I love Warm & Natural. Nearly all of my quilts are made with this. It's not too thick and it makes a comfortable quilt.

I love W&N on my frame but it is very heavy to sit-n-shove. I used Hobbs Heirloom before I got my frame, it's very light weight, hangs nice and is warm. On the frame, I'm W&N all the way, Amie :o)

I like Warm and Natural also. I did try the 50 percent bamboo that Joann's sells and was very disapointed with it. I used it on a wall hanging and it quilted fine but it was so fuzzy. I used a black fabric for binding and am still trying to get the fuzz off. Carol

I've used both W&N and Hobbs, depends on the use. :)
