Batting for a WARM Quilt???

Minky is a fuzzy, warm fabric that makes a great backing. It started off in mosting baby quilt colors/styles, but now there are all sorts of patterns and colors. I've just ordered some to use for warm backings for some lap quilts for my mom and my niece. It's best for quilts that are less than 60" wide since that's the width of the fabric. The fabric is thick so a seam would be bulky. The best variety I've found is at fabric.com. Just put "minky" in the search engine. A lot of it is on sale right now.

Hi Clara. I made a warm quilt for friends in Minnesota. I used fleece on the top and back, and 80-20 batting. They loved the quilt, but said it was too warm!!??? For MN in winter?? I think I would just use one layer of fleece and some flannel if I had it to do over again. They let the dogs and cats on the bed, so did not want to use just cotton fabric.

Rita, Does a quilt with a wool batt take a long time to dry? I don't imagine you can put it in the dryer. Do you have trouble getting them to dry in your wet climate. I have one and I am eager to try it but I have been wondering about laundering it. Any thoughts? Can you wash the quilt on gentle in the washing machine?

Quilter's Dream Wool Batting is my FAVORITE batting! It is warm, yet light. It drapes wonderfully, even with denser quilting. It does breathe unlike polyester. It gives a nice loft to the quilt. It IS Washable and can be put in the dryer but I don't recommend doing so on high, only low or medium. Cotton is also warm and does breathe but it makes a heavier quilt, esp if you use heavier fabrics like fleece or flannel.Deborah W
