Hello, could someone suggest what batting to use? The quilt top is already heavy and I'm not sure what to use as a batting. Thank you!

Lynnanne, I am so happy for you to have the top done. Whoo Hoo!!! I have not taken mine out of its bin, since I started playing around with Color My World with Flannel.
I use Warm and Natural batting. It is 100 percent cotton and flat. I like that since my Husquvarna machine does not have much room for stuffing the whole quilt thru. That
is also why I also plan to do quilt in sections. Would love to see a picture of your top. HelenW

Ok thank you both! I'm going to try to split the batting to quilt it. The colors are really bright but I had to make do with what I had. It was really fun to make and a great learning experience.

I finished my quilt top in February and now need to decide on how to do the quilting. I had so much fun making this quilt, my first TQS BOM, but definitely not the last. Barbara, your instructions were fantastic and I don't know if I would have attempted this without them.

I finished this about a month ago, but I just got the photo taken this morning. I quilted it on my Bernina 750QE. I had so much fun doing this!

Glad it's finally finished. I used a straight set, adding more shoo-fly and round applique blocks to complete the pattern. Extended the 9-patches into the border to complete the grid. I really like the diagonal grid formed by the double 9-patch blocks.
