Natural Fibers

When most people talk about wool quilts, they immediately think “heavy”.  Not so, in reality, a wool batt weighs a lot less than cotton and is so nice to quilt through – like quilting through butter.  Because wool is a natural fiber,  it heats up to a comfortable warmth then starts to release the excess heat which means you are always just the right temperature.

Try to always purchase a natural fiber for your quilt batt.  There are so many to choose from including, but not limited to: wool, cotton, down, silk, linen, bamboo, or any other natural fiber.
