    Your quilt top is beautiful! That pattern has been on my "to-do" list for some time. :)

    Oh, two layers would be a XXOOX to quilt through. poly gives the most loft, but don't get too thick either. I prefer Hobbs 80/20 because of the loft & ease of quilting. remember that
    poly batting will shift more when you quilt it. would be nice
    if you could get this special one long-armed because it will be
    a lot to get through your machine. quilt as you go may be a good choice here. good luck with your timing !

    You will get a beautiful quilt with a lot of definition if you use poly batting. It will also be much easier to needle. The quilt is beautiful! Get a 12 ounce poly batting. You will love it.
