    has anyone tried Soft & Natural Batting by the Warm & Natural makers?

    i thinking about using it in the studio quilts but wanted to know if any one has experience with it.

    I've never heard of it before, but it sounds soft. I'll have to look into that. Thank you for the info.

    its really thick and soft, typically you have to buy an 80/20 blend to get something with a lot of loft.

    i was really impressed with the product.

    i make a lot of quilts for the local Recording Studios in NYC and i normally have to do double or triple thickness of warm & natural to achieve the sound acoustics these clients are looking for - i'm not able to use any poly or even 80/20 blend because it doesn't have the same acoustic properties as 100% cotton.

    Where can this batting be found? I see it on the Warm website but I can't find it in any online stores!

    That's interesting about the acoustic properties of different fibers.
    Wonder how wool would behave?
