Nowadays, there is such a wide variety of quilt battings available that it may be a challenge to select the right one. Sylvain Bergeron at WeAllSew wants to help you select the proper batting for your project.

From Sylvain Bergeron at WeAllSew:

"Things to consider are fiber composition and thickness (or loft). While we could write a whole book on battings and their uses, this article aims for a simple start: 4 batting types and thicknesses to help you get started:

 - Low loft cotton batting (e.g. Warm & Natural) – very common batting type for quilts

 - Hi-loft polyester – good for home dec projects and where extra puffiness (loft) is needed

 - Soft and Stable (byAnnie) – great for tote bags and craft projects

 - Quilter’s Flannel: ideal for projects like table runners and art quilts where flatness is desirable."
