Newbie! Flannel Charm Patch Blanket - Batting Help
#12
Welcome to the QB from SE Michigan! Your choice of W&N is just fine. For me that is a prefered batting. I will use other poly batts from time to time if I want a bit more phuff! Have fun with your quilt and Welcome aboard!

Moffatt- it sounds perfect to me.
I love working with Moda flannels. I've had a lot of fun with them. I really love precuts and buy many.
Yes, this quilting business is so addictive!
Glad you're here.

Welcome from Ontario, Canada. Polyester batt is harder to quilt on a smaller sewing machine and it also shifts. With two layers of flannel and the warm and natural batt, it should be toasty. Flannel and cotton batt tends to shrink when washed but if the backing is flannel also it will shrink together. I might use a 3/8 seam allowance rather then 1/4 because flannel usually has a looser weave and frays more.
