    What is your favorite batting to use. I buy warm 'n' natural but haven't used much else. Was wondering what others found to be outstanding.

    I love warm and natural and warm and white. I have used Hobbs 80/20 as well.

    I like "Soft & Bright", made by the "Warm" people.
    It is polyester, doesn't stretch & quilts nicely. I buy it at JoAnn's when I have a coupon.

    I have used Dream Green, made from recycled plastic bottles. I have both machine and hand quilted with it and love it. Alas, few shops carry it, I usually can only find it online.

    I use many kinds...W&N....mostly HObbs Polydown.....Dream puff, I like legacy's new soy batting..it is really soft and nice. I also like the bamboo batting maybe a bit better than W&N...it doesn't stretch or pucker...while quilting...which is really nice.

    I prefer Hobbs 80/20 or Legacy 80/20 because I like a very traditional look for my quilts. Both are easy to hand quilt and low loft.
