Howdy!
If you wash the Hobbs Heirloom, just kind of let it soak in
some soapy water, gentle rinse, short spin-dry, then toss it
in the clothes dryer for a drying fluff, it's really soft and poofier
(I love those high-tech terms). And much easier to handquilt.

Ragmop/Sandy--that Hobbs batting: it's from ... oh, yeah,
TEXAS, you know ;-D

Hey girls,

Does anyone know if there is a cotton batting out there that is
somewhat
"fluffy"? I love cotton batting for it's ease in quilting but lean
toward the
poly's for fluffiness when I do a lap size. But poly is difficult to
quilt,
particularly the high loft variety.....ideally what I'd like to find is
a
cotton batting with some of the "fluffiness" of a poly? Any
recommendations?

Cotton batts aren't terribly fluffy. You might give the Hobbs 80/20 a
try. It's fluffier than straight cotton and is very nice to hand or
machine quilt.

If you aren't set on cotton, the Hobbs wool batt is pretty fluffy and
hand quilts wonderfully.
