I like to use Warm and White. It's truly white like a cotton boll. I think it helps to make the white whiter. I really think it depends upon your white fabric some are very thin. Test your batting behind it then test a white sheet of paper. If it's not much of a difference, use what you have.

Either is okay to use, but toverly is right that an off-white batting will make the whites in your quilt show up a little differently. I also use Warm and White, as well as Soft and Bright (white poly by the Warm Company). And when I'm quilting a very dark quilt, I use black batting, though it's harder to find.
