I agree. We do try to recycle as much as possible but don't necessarily buy organic or anything. However, I think a lot of people don't realize how much is involved in organic growing, whether it's food or non food. My dh is a farmer so he's pretty well versed in conservation and such but there's only so much most farmers can afford to do at the prices and cost of operations these days.

Being green, varies from person to person. There is no way of being 100% green. Most people who are trying to live that way know that. My guess is a good part of their own clothing is not "green", nor quite a few of their possessions. Get cotton fabric and go for an organic cotton batting and you will be fine. I agree about the bamboo batting, it's pretty processed. Make the lovely baby quilt, do the best you can and I can pretty much guarantee they will love it. :)

does green always mean organic, how about recycling curtains from a thrift store for material then you'll have more money for the batting.
