    I freq use fleece as the backing of a quilt ( I quilt for older ppl that tend to be so cold all the time) I freq use double knit as batting... normally more in a quilt as you go type setting.... but I have done an over all batting of double knit... I try to remember to quilt it a bit heavier to keep things from stretching and getting funky..
    Yes, I grew up with only old blankets and quilts used as batting in the North central Texas area.... I was well grown before i knew batting even existed.. lol

    I am about to sandwich a quilt for my son who lives in Northern Indiana. This thread has helped make up my mind what to use for the batting. Thanks!
