What type of batting is used to make a quilt?
There are many types of quilt batting, and what to use depends on personal preference and the use and desired look of the quilt. Cotton batting is usually quite thin and is good for machine quilting. It is also good to use for antique quilt tops and reproduction quilts, as most cotton batting shrinks a bit in the wash, giving quilts a slightly "puckered" look. You can also pre-shrink cotton for a smoother, more contemporary look. Polyester batting is loftier and suitable for fluffier quilts that are tied or hand quilted. Polyester is very easy to hand quilt. Poly-cotton blends offer the benefits of both. Wool batting is easy to hand and machine quilt and is very warm, although some wool batts emit a "wet animal" smell when damp. New battings that are made with bamboo and recycled plastic are available as well. Just be sure to read the content label, instructions for use, and care label on any batting that you buy.
