Batting Practice

I'm trying to figure out which batting to use for my quilt. Yes, I'm getting ready to quilt her!!
I made a little sample using extra blocks and Hobbs Heirloom 100% Cotton Batting.
I've realized that, no matter how soft and pliable the batting I choose is, because of all the seams and the denseness of the quilting, this quilt is probably still going to be pretty rigid and stiff.

  1. I used the same batting and due to the lot of quilting I did and all the small pcs of fabric the quilt is quite heavy. But it is not that stiff and rigid. Probably with the first washing it will soften even more.
