Thermore Ultra Thin Batting - anyone used this?
Went to JoAnn's after work tonight to stock up on some flannel for a rag quilt. Saw this and it was 50% off (all packaged batting was) decided to get some. Seems very thin but since I am going through the power surges lately decided to try it on a quilt i want to finish (this one is for me - very first top I made - still haven't got it finished yet -lol ) anyone use this - pros/cons? By the way it is made by Hobbs so I figured it would be good just not sure if it will be good for a quilt!

Thermore is widely used in the quilted clothing venue. In Texas where Hobbs is made we usually thought of Thermore less for quilts and more for quilted clothing, wall hangings, accessories and so forth.

that is the recommended batting for quilted jackets, purses, other clothing items- it adds just the right amount of body to a garment without adding alot of weight- if you like it you can use it for what ever you want- but follow the quilting distance recommendations - it needs to be quilted fairly dense
