    Yes for black or dark blue quilts. It is not easy to find around me though. Only one LQS carries it.

    I had made a wall hanging for Christmas with a starry night and I didn't know there was black batting! The stars were looking like comets.

    I just took a large, mostly black quilt for Long Arm Quilting; my first
    such experience, & she said it definitely needed a black batting. I had
    taken her Warm & Natural neutral color. She showed me what would
    happen on one she had made for herself. So she was kind enough to
    swap it out for me; exchanged my Warm & Natural for the black batting.
    I was not aware there was black batting prior to this experience.
    Very grateful for this assistance.

    I have a dark quilt I am working on, and bought black batting to go in it. I didnt want the white to come thru. But as a rule, I use Warm & Natural.

    Do you order your black batting online or pick it up at a store? I would like to buy a roll of it , as I make a lot of quilts with black backings , and don't want the white fuzzies showing up.
