    I don't think it matters, at least I haven't ever worried about that and my quilts are fine when w & n is used.

    never thought there was a right or wrong side..
    both sides of the quilt will be equally cuddled on!

    I follow what has been said on this board. "Salt & pepper" side up,
    smoother side down. Not sure if it really matters but I prefer the
    smoother side to touch my skin. ;)

    there is no right and wrong side of batting, the batting just goes in the middle it is the same on both sides.

    Most, but not all battings have a scrim on the wrong side. That side goes down next to the backing. Or so that's what I was told when I first got my LA.

    When I first bought it, the clerk told me the smooth side goes down, so that is how I have always done it. I guess she told me wrong, thanks for the correction.
