    Thanks for being so specific, too. It really helped.

    What happens if you do it wrong?

    Crafty-kid. I had one quilt that had "fuzz" all over the back. Used a lot of tape to get it off. Was told it was probably because I had the batting wrong side up (or down) as the case may be.

    I use warm and natural, have never looked that close as which side up, so far never had a problem. May be I have just been lucky all these years. LOL

    There is no wrong. Honestly I did it the other way on every quilt from my last bolt of W&N.... I truly haven't noticed an issue once it is quilted....

    I did not know that either!! I use Warm and Natural and have made dozens of wall hangings and quilts, and never noticed any problems. I will watch in the future. Love how I learn something new here all the time!!

    I use Quilter's Dream, without a scrim, and it works the same way. I think the theory is that you want your needle to be going in the same way it was needle-punched. That's easier for me to remember than a mnemonic.

    Hugs,

    Hmmm- I never knew there was a wrong and right side of batting. You learns something new every day!!

    So what about all those quilts we've made backwards? Or potentailly backwards because we could have done it right or wrong, but didn't know any better...
