    I think it depends on the planned use of the quilt...many wall hangings or art quilts use many types of fibers just fine....

    I prefer cotton for fabrics. Thread varies and so does batting. I have Warm and Natural, Bamboo blends, and wool.

    Cotton fabric, cotton thread for piecing, cotton or poly for quilting, and cotton, wool or cotton/poly for batting.

    I like 100% cotton unless it's a crazy quilt, then anything you can iron is ok.
