I have been quilting for over 25 years and have tried many kinds, lofts and brands of batting; but after making my daughter's quilt for her Wedding last summer I fell in love with this batting.
It is Quilters Dream “Request” Poly.
You would not DREAM it was Poly.
It is the thinnest loft which has always been my favorite. As the label says, ”wonderful light weight, exceptional for hand quilting” Yes, it is like stitching through butter!!
Do you think I have enough? Little T loves it!! BTW notice his shirt says “Big Brother”, yes, we are expecting our second grandchild in September!
“Just for fun” I have put two polls on my side bar about batting.
Inquiring minds (mine) would love to know what you use and like!!
Have a happy day!

I love this batt - usually get the cotton, but the Request is just a "dream"! And congratulations grandma
ReplyDeleteI've used the cotton Quilters Dream, and I thought the drape was lovely, especially when combined with voiles :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute "demonstrator" of lofiness!!

He is having more fun with that batting...so cute...and how lucky you are to be getting another grandchild....twice the fun!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun picture. As soon as I saw Little T's shirt in my reader I knew I better click on over to see what's going on. Congratulations on another grandbaby.
ReplyDeleteI started using that fluffy polyester batting because that's what seemed to be in our comforters. We loved the fluffy snuggly feeling of the comforters so that's what I used. Then I found out about cotton. I was so happy to see how easy it is to quilt. I've heard that Bamboo is fun to work with but I haven't tried it yet.
I have used this and loved it. I would love to try a silk batting, but have never seen it anywhere but online. Some day I will try it.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Grandma To Be!!!
ReplyDeleteOk, dokee...I like high loft cotton and why....? you ask..because it is "friggin" cold here...lol.
ReplyDeleteand I always do flannel backs and foot pockets...seriously your wee one would have more fun here...lol. I have down too...
on second thought...he loves his grandma....
Laugh at me as you will, but I really like the feel and weight of cotton batting. I like the way it washes up and "scrunches" up too. I've not yet used poly but for my Snowbird friends, I may have to use your recommendation :)
ReplyDeleteI want to buy a roll now just so my little one can play on it when she's older LOL
ReplyDeleteJane, I have some of that batting on order to try out. I usually use Thermore, but so many have reccommened this batting, and now you, so it must be good..
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the happy news of a new grand baby on the way...♥
Congratulations Jane! How lovely that you are getting another grandchild!
