First--my computer has gone on streaks of not letting me download all you wonderful people so I post with some trepidation because I need your wisdom but I don't want to lose you! I've missed writing to y'all (and missed even more not being able to read your wit and wisdom!)
I'm sewing a drunkard's path quilt. When finished it will be about 104 x 96. I will free--motion MQ it on my trusty little Bernie 1000. It's for my terrific step-son who likes a poufy quilt (good thing he really is terrific or I'd put W & N in there in a heartbeat.)
What batt would you recommend? In the past I've used a Poly-fil, which was okay, but maybe others are poufier, or better in other ways? I was at Hobby Lobby yesterday and saw a Morning Glory Glory III batt that's 1 inch thick. Now that's poufy! but I'm not sure Bernie or I could stand to MQ it, and I guess I don't want to tie this, altho' I considered it briefly (I guess I belong to the school that says it's not a quilt unless it's quilted.)
Hancock's of Paducah's newest catalog shows a Hobbs Cloud Loft which is
5/8". It also shows Quilter's Dream Deluxe loft which gets rave reviews but I can't find how high the loft is. I've never used either of these.I dread MQ'ing a huge high-loft quilt, but he is a good kid ;-) Advice, please? Thanks so much!
