    I have seen the the new tater batting advertised, glad to hear some info on it. Would you wash this and fabric before sewing or do you make them first, then wash before using? Thought these would be good to make up for little gifts.

    Donna Mae, do not use warn & natural. It has been known to catch on fire. I was in a quilt shop & owner told me one of her customers bag caught on fire. She called W/N & they told her not to use it in the micro. It isn't 100% cotton. If you look at it closely you can see little needle imprints. They add something else to it to hold it together. I have tried their new Tater Batting & it is great. It is thicker than the reg. W/N. What ever you use must be 100% cotton.

    Cybraian, You was & dry after you have made your bag. You do not have to prewash.

    Remember: not all microwaves have the same wattage. That is why some pop popcorn for a shorter period than others, etc.

    To be safe, use the W & N Tater batting.
