I agree with the earlier posters, it sounds like she will not like the quilting. My suggestion is to make a quilt top/duvet cover.

You could use two layers of batting, one cotton like quitters dream select or even deluxe and then a poly layer...you would have to quilt loosely so it stays lofty following the battings requirements of course...or tying would also keep the loft as the others have said. You'd probably want to have it long armed if you used two battings.

Make a duvet cover .. I would not want to quilt High loft batting. I did it once .. and only once. I would rather have teeth pulled without anethesia at least the pain would be over quicker!

I've made a couple quilts this way. I like the heavy weight and look. Of course living in central Wisconsin makes this everyones favorite quilt. I quilt on my Husqvarna Topaz. I did SITD on one and a very wide spread vine pattern on the other. The receipents loved them.

I agree that thick quilt can only be achieved by minimum quilting. I used the dream poly puff and dodn't think it added that much loft. I too like the duvet cover idea.

I made something similar with two layers of high loft and tied it with floss. My daughter loved it and took it home for the foot of her guest bed. It was quick to do and easy but not my personal favorite.

Just don't use 2 layers of W&N and hand quilt it...ask me how I know!

I almost always use high loft poly batting in my quilts and do not have any problems quilting them. It sounds like she wants a comforter, which is thicker and I would tie it. Quilts are thinner and quilted, comforters are ticker and tied. JMO.

Jeeze! Duvet! All my earnest babbling and I only needed to say "duvet."

I'd just use high loft batting and minimally quilt it.
