I've sent my own batting and used what they had on hand. Many long arm quilters offer batting options, or let you send along what you want to use. I would contact them and verify, but it's a pretty standard practice!

I've been told you can select the batting the quilter will use.

It was a crazy 60% off sale and I snuck in just before it ended. I imagine the roll will last me all year, at least--probably longer, since I quilt on a fairly small scale these days. It's a great investment indeed!Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10464017894034971101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4580965803850912868.post-86286580863082739522015-08-09T21:00:24.209-05:002015-08-09T21:00:24.209-05:00I buy that exact same roll from JoAnn's.
