MY JOURNEY WITH BATTING

It all began years ago when I was asked to test batting for my local quilt guild.  That experience sparked a passion and, over the years, my experience with testing and using different battings has fueled my desire to learn all I can about this essential part of quilting.

I have had the opportunity to film for the quilting industry and have been published in various industry publications, sharing information about battings. 

I hope you enjoy the results of the test I have compiled and, more importantly , that they will help you determine which battings will work best for you and your quilt projects.
