I don't hand quilt so I don't know how it is for that. It is a little heavier than the all cotton stuff so it is great for quilts intended for colder climates. it might be to warm for Arizona quilts.

John Thanks John, I don't hand quilt either but I just bought it and wondered if anyone had any experience with this brand, although an old name you never know... I will let you know after I try it..I am enamored with the silk aspect of the batting! sound luxurious, boy did I get pulled in or what? Mauvice |

Ctton/silk or cotton/wool Mountain Mist batting?
I've used the wool and love it. So warm and cozy. Just now, I bought a
cotton/bamboo batting. It's going into two baby quilts I have to make next week. (why oh why do I wait until the week before the shower to start sewing??) I'll let you guys know about the bamboo batting. I have a friend who always uses silk batting. She only sews silk quilts. Yes, I know......... But she says they're wonderful, if a bit slippery. I'm thinking I would use a touch of basting spray, just to keep things from slipping around too much. Sunny |

I love the bamboo batting. I have used it in one quilt, which is at the
shop (class sample) If I remember to take my camera on Sat. I will try to take pictures of some of the classroom if any one would like. G Pati, in Phx Sunny wrote: I've used the wool and love it.

There was an article in one of the quilting mags saying it was the cat's whiskers. I don't know any place locally that sells it so I might have to order it online and see what all the fuss is about.

JoAnn's carries the bamboo batting. It is actually a bamboo/cotton blend
and is naturally antibacterial. G Pati, in Phx John wrote: I have heard good things about that bamboo batting. There was an article in one of the quilting mags saying it was the cat's whiskers.
