Have you tried to dye scraps of batting using KoolAid? Jackie White shared this cute litte project with us at www.pellonprojects.com
Wool batting

I noticed a discussion on wool batting in some of the groups here. I use Legacy 100% thermal bonded wool batting in all hand quilted projects and most of my machine quilted projects for its breathability and ease of use. There is nothing better to work with or to sleep under.
Super washed wool does not shrink. Fabrics will shrink 3% if not washed prior to use.

Darlene, If you still lived here we'd be neighbors! Such a small world. I've looked at the quilts on your page. You are a very talented lady.
Welcome Quilter Friend!
Just wanted to pop in to say “hello” and introduce myself. I’m Linda Hubalek, fellow quilter and author from Kansas. Books about pioneer women are my specialty, with a cooking or quilting theme mixed into each historical fiction series.
If you like to read—besides quilting—please enjoy my blog and book excerpts on my website too. Besides printed as paperbacks, my ten books are also available for your Kindle or Nook. Actually my Trail of Thread ebooks are on special, so now’s a good time to “Follow the trail to Kansas” with my quilting women.
Or if you’d like the paperback version I just posed a special on my Linda Hubalek website (until Aug. 21st) that you can get 20% off your book order by using the code QUILT in the shopping cart.
I have about a dozen quilts made by my great grandmother, (that we used all the time when I was a kid) so I’m into antique quilts and patterns. What kind of quilts and patterns do you like to work with?
Happy quilting and reading!
Linda Hubalek
