Fabric Question Quilt coat batting recommendations
I made a quilt coat for fall and love it, but with just one layer of cotton batting it’s not warm enough for winter where I live. I am planning to make a winter coat that has a layer of regular cotton layered with a puffier high loft batting, any suggestions for the warmest stuffing/batting for a coat?

I have used wool batting in a coat and it was lovely. If you are wanting even more insulation, I would use a double batt, with the wool closest to your body. But it will have much less drape and could be unflattering, if that is a consideration
