This thread is 10 years old. Rayon batting, also known as bamboo batting, shrinks about the same as cotton batting. It's a fine choice, especially if you want your project to have a soft drape.

Thanks for the details. Right Now i am working on research paper about different fabric shrinking like rayon shrinking or polyester shrinking and many more.

I love bamboo batting and have used the Quilter's Dream in several quilts. I love the softness and drape.
