Very, very helpful!! Thank you Krista!! :-)
You bet Tasha!!
Your quilts are gorgeous!!!
Excellent information! I bought your guidebook but the video is a wonderful reference as well.
Thank you so much Kimberly!
I need that little book. Thanks!
Yes you do!! Haha!
Something every quilter should have and know. Thank you
It'll take all the guesswork out of it!
Great video. Wish I could "like" it more than once. Thanks you!
Hahaha! Thank you so much!
I love your tutorials! I just bought the diamond ruler you created because you have demonstrated so many uses for it. Also bought the batting book. I love the shortcuts and efficiency you share. Thanks!
Oh thank you so much for the kind and encouraging comment Mona!! That really means a lot :)
Excellent information 👍❤️
Oh good! Thank you Marina!
Hi Krista, It's Sue from Australia. I searched around and found a book shop down in Sydney who has your book so I ordered one. It arrived yesterday. I have already read it. Now I know where I have been going wrong from time to time. This book will go with me when I next buy some batting. I feel so much more informed about what I am looking for and what type to use for what I am sewing. A lot more thought will be going into my purchases now instead of … oh this looks like it could be alright... and sometimes it wasn't and I was never sure why but now I am in the know. Thank you Krista.
That is fantastic Sue!! I am so happy to hear it has already been helpful :)
Great info!
Oh good Linda! I'm glad it was helpful.
Answered those questions I was always to embarrassed to ask! Thanks!
Hahaha! don't be embarrassed to ask! But, yeah, when everyone seems to know but me I'm like, uh, help!
Thank you! I just ordered a copy of this. It will take the guess work out of which batting I should use.
You will be amazed how many options you probably never thought to try! I hope it helps :)
i love your designs
Thank you so much!!
I always look forward to your classes, thankyou from Australia
Awww! Thank you Patricia!
Love that you shared the SKUs! So helpful. Thanks so much!
:) That saves a lot of email inquiries! haha!
Hello, I used double thickness 100% warm & natural batting in a lap quilt for my daughter. She said it was great from her April birthday until the fall and then she said it didn't seem to have any warmth to it. I have been told a few different things - got to use flannel, minky... backing. Cotton batting isn't warm. Have to use a blend. I can see from your post that you know batting. Do you cover warmth factors in your little book? That was wonderful information about the thin polyester for place mats or table runners. I have a plan to make a few sets for Holiday gifts. So glad I caught that tip. Thank you, Isla Perreault
I did cover the warmth factor in the book under each kind of battings characteristics. In your situation I would suggest at least one layer of blended batting that involves some (or all) polyester... Wool batting is very warm, but isn't the best for high use quilts that need washing from time to time. Polyester batting is warm because it doesn't breath well and traps body heat the best, Minky backing will do the same thing. Any natural fiber batting or backing will breath and thus lose body heat, so avoid those if you need added warmth. I hope that helps!
So glad I discovered you through FQS. I really enjoy your tutorials!
Thank you so much! Nice to "meet" you :)
Once again another great tutorial. I never knew there were so many options. Now to investigate my local shop and expand my knowledge.
Thank you
It's crazy how many options are out there... and it could be overwhelming, but there's quite a fun science behind why some work better than others for different projects :) You'll have fun exploring!
Once again, very informative! So important in finishing that gets overlooked! Great job!
Isn't that the truth?! It's this stuff that really makes a difference
You know it girly!:)
Thank you Krista, just ordered this invaluable book! As a new quilter I have questioned what batting to use in projects! Thank you again 😊
Thank you so much Kathleen! There are so many varieties, but this will really help you pick the right one for each new thing you do!
@@kristamoser where can I purchase your batting book?
@@marinadi532: Hi Marina, you can purchase Krista's batting book here: www.kristamoser.com/product-page/know-your-batting
Thank you for the information Krista. It came at a perfect time for me. I usually use 80/20 but I've had a package of polyester batting and was going to use that until you mentioned about difficulty quilting. Think I will go back to my 80/20 for this quilt. Almost made my quilt sandwich today. Glad I didn't!
The polyester will be good for something someday... but it's a lot to try and get through your sewing machine and have it look right in the end :) besides the 80/20 will hold up to more washings!
Great info!! I always enjoy your videos! Thanks!
Thank you Sharon!
O seu trabalho é muito lindo, cores maravilhosas de muito bom gosto, show!
¡¡Muchas gracias!!
Awesome as usual Krista! Love the info, very helpful. Soon to be my first Krista Moser book😉 .
Best of luck with the book sales.
Hahaha! It's my first book too ;) Never ever thought I'd have a reason to write a book!
I am wondering what the best batting is for baby burp clothes, I want to make them for friends expecting grandchildren. Love your quilts and video! Thank you!
Have you tried just putting a piece of flannel in the middle for batting?
Very useful information! I learned a lot from your video. Thank you!
I am so happy to hear that!! There is a lot more information, but this is a good start :)
Forget about the batting, I want to know more about that shiny gold fabric on the hexagon quilt!
Hahaha! That is gold satin! I have used it in several quilts... I just back it with a super lightweight fusible interfacing and then cut my strips and piece like normal... I do use steam in my iron or the satin can melt at high heat.
@@kristamoser great thank you so much for letting me know.
Loved the info u covered. Now would u share the pattern of the first flashy quilt u should. I say flashy because the colours are beautiful. TKS
Thank you Saskia! That is my Semaphore Stripes pattern. Here is a link to it www.kristamoser.com/product-page/semaphore-stripes
Thank you so much! I
Absolutely needed to know about batting.. 💖
You'll be amazed what a difference your choices will make!

Ooooh yay!! It's going to make a big difference!
Great information, thank you!
I am so glad that was helpful Carol!

Thank you so much!
Thank you. Very useful info
Thank you Tracy!
Very helpful thanks.
Oh good! I am so happy to hear that :)
Love that table runner. What is that pattern called. Beautiful
That is my Twirl N Spin pattern! It is super easy, here is a link to it www.kristamoser.com/product-page/twirl-n-spin-table-runner
Thank you very much, this is very helpful. The problem that I have is that my family likes fluffy quilts and I do like quilts that show off my quilting, but I do not like using petroleum based products due to their sustainability issues. I was going to attempt wool, but the quilts will be used quite heavily so I am not sure how to achieve the look and quality of a polyester or cotton blend batting without using polyester.
Hmmm, that is a problem Andrea, wool does make the coziest quilts... you just don't want to be washing them all the time. They wash up fine, but they take some extra care during the washing process and that could get laborious.
@@kristamoser would two layers of cotton or bamboo batting have the same effect?
Hi - Love your videos?
Can you please tell me where I can find the pattern and fabric for the hexagon quilt?
You can purchase the pattern here: www.kristamoser.com/honeycomb. If you're looking for the metallics, we sell the gold on our website. The bright version is here: www.kristamoser.com/product-page/bright-striped-version-honeycomb-hexagon-fabric-kit-lap-size
This is something I really need. I have learnt from some horrible experiences that batting can either make or break a sewing project. However, I live in Australia. Is there a digital version of your book? I'd really like to have one but in the current state of our Australia Post if I bought a book from America, I might never see it this year, or at all!! LOL
I know the publisher has a worldwide distribution! I don't know what outlets they use in Australia, but I know you can find it there!! Amazon also has it, does their shipping take less time for you guys?
@@kristamoser Thank you Krista. I'll look into it. If your book is already here in Australia somewhere I will be able to get one but if it has to come from America it could be lengthy ( or scary ) because it's not how fast America gets it to Australian shores, it's what Australia Post does with it after that as they are swamped with extra online purchases and things don't move as smoothly as they once did and there is no end in sight to this dilemma. I am determined to get one though, one way or another!!!
Where can I get your Batting Book?
Hi gd afternoon wat is the best batting used for soft Drippery
Like for cornice board
Thank you for your years of insught as a longarmer. Do you go into detail about bamboo batting? I have a friend how thinks it is the best but haven't tried it yet. Do yiu lust how to identify up vs down for longarming batting with scrim?
Yes! Bamboo has it's own section :) There are only a few brand options available, but I covered all of them!
Thanks for these tips. I just made my first quilt for my young son out of his baby/toddler clothes and I used 100% cotton batting. It is so thin and it doesn't keep him warm. I wish I had used something else. Is the 80/20 blend warmer?
Yes it is a little warmer due to the 20% polyester. You could also try a higher weight 100% cotton (sometimes listed as oz) I've used 6oz 100% cotton and it was extremely warm!
Thank you. Pity the book was not in PDF format for those of us not in USA
I don't think the publisher has a pdf option, but they do have worldwide distribution so you may be able to find it locally! Or Amazon has it and I'm sure they'll ship just about anywhere :)
What is the quilt pattern of the quilt hanging behind you. I’m in love.
That is my FanFaire quilt! Here is a link to that pattern www.kristamoser.com/fanfaire
Love the gold quilt...pattern name please!
That is my Honeycomb Hexagon pattern! here is a link to it :) www.kristamoser.com/honeycomb
Krista Moser I just ordered it... are the fabrics you used available or do I need to pick out my own?
Is your book brand Specific? Will it be a good reference for all brands that are that type of batting? Thank you
I covered as many of the different brands as I could squeeze in! It has boutique brands as well and main stream (box store) options!
@@kristamoser looks like I better go get your book!
