gailpeters 6 Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 Has anyone used the fairfield wool batting they have on sale at Joannes? There is a pretty good coupon today but I have been so satisfied with Dream wool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gailpeters 6 Posted March 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 How do I move this to the correct place. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chickenscratch 1,136 Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 I haven't used it, but thought about buying some. I'm hesitant because I have had bad luck with Fairfield battings. There are sometimes hard lumps of fibers in the batting and that makes it hard to stitch. Also, when unfolding them and placing them on the quilt back, they stretch really badly. I did buy a package of that Warm and Plush they had last month. I will be using it this afternoon. I will let everybody know how it stitches up. I'm hoping it is comparable to Dream Puff.

gkazee 54 Posted March 15, 2015 Report Share Posted March 15, 2015 I attempted to use a package of Fairfield once.......it pulled a hole in it while smoothing it on top of the backing and that was before I had a Longarm so I was preparing to pin baste on the floor. I can't imagine getting it loaded on the Longarm but maybe you will have better luck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gailpeters 6 Posted March 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Well, maybe since I have used Dream Wool and liked it so much I will pass on the buy at Joannes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SandyK 18 Posted March 27, 2015 Report Share Posted March 27, 2015 I saw that sale and was tempted too. It is only a 9 yard roll. So I'm wondering if it was really that good of a price compared to the larger bolts at 25 yards. Can someone tell me where the best place is to buy Quilters Dream batting on the roll? Recently I used the wool on a bed quilt and fell in love with it. Did a search and couldn't find the place you ladies referred to before. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
