Black batting
Has anyone used black batting? I am making a black and white quilt and have purchased black batting but am second guessing myself. Should I have stayed with the white? Will the black batting "show" through too much on the white fabric? The white pieces are about a 2 in. white solid. I have put the black batting underneath and just can't decide if it would work or not. Thanks...

i've used lots of black batts- on dark quilts- i would guess it would depend on how much white there is- if the quilt is predominatly white/light= black is probably not a good choice- if the quilt is dark with only a small amount of white it might be ok-
black batts work great for black and dark quilts- top and backing.

I have used black batting many times but only on fabric that is of dark color. I did a black and white quilt and used white batting from the Warm Company. I just didn't want to chance the black eventually dulling the white fabric.
