you should use a batt that allows up to 10" apart- or states-good for tied quilts...like warm & natural- or dreampoly...any that says up to 10" apart-
a batt that needs to be quilted every 2"-4" is not a good choice for a tied quilt (even if you placed a tie every 4"---there would be large gaps that would separate)

I used mostly low loft poly batting from WalMart and tied with acrylic 4-ply yarn. Tied in 6-inch blocks
