I received an email that Connecting Threads has a batting sale. The kind they have for sale is Hobbs Heirloom batting. Has anyone ever used this and would you recommend it?

I used the black Heirloom in my one and only black quilt. I really liked it! I was a die hard Warm & Natural fan but I wouldn't hesitate to use the Heirloom again (probably when my stash of Warm & Natural is diminished and I'm looking for a sale!)

All thir Hobbs batting is on sale. I have used their wool once and liked it. I use Poly-down about 90% log the time when I quilt for customers. Many prefer it over cotton. I recently bought some Hobbs 80/20 and am going to try to quilt one of my own quilt tops this weekend with it and then wash it and see what the relsulting look is. I have a feeling I will really like the 80/20 and I know many people use it. I think I will be starting to stock that also for my customers to choose from. I also got an email about the batting sale. I think it said it runs until Feb. 18th so that gives me time to see if I want to order some. Remember, everyone--there's free shipping with $50 or more order form Connecting Threads!

I stock up everytime it's on sale! It's great batting and I love the poly down.

I use Hobbs Heirloom 80/20 all the time. I bought some fusible and some 505 basting spray for the batting i have on hand. free shipping.
i pulled an old quilt i did yrs ago out last night. yuck. it's done with polyester batting. I never got it tied so i'm doing that now.
