batting question
I'm fairly new at quilting and have used only Warm and Natural batting. Joann's is having a sale and the Warm and White is cheaper in the size I need. Are there any real differences in these? If so, what? Thanks

When in doubt of what color batting to buy when it on sale and both are the same price... I will buy white as I can use it on most all my quilts.. The natural color when I have white in the blocks sometimes shows and shades the white fabrics.
As posted earlier Warm and White is the same as Warm and Natural in content and construction , just one is bleached cotton.

Just be aware that both types can shrink. I always wet and machine dry my Warm and Natural twice before using it in a quilt. I also prefer the white--seems to be a bit thinner and also does not show thru light fabrics.
