She also talks about some of the different colors of batting available and explains when it might be a good idea to use different colors, such as when to use white batting over a natural colored cotton batting. The quilt batting you choose to use may also come down to the size of batting available for the size of quilt you are making, though piecing together quilt batting is possible.

Choosing the right quilt batting determines how your final quilt will look- whether this is a small art quilt meant to hang on the wall or a large bed size quilt.
