BUT I had two quilts quilted with Pellon wool batting around the same time, and once washed they both bearded very badly.. Pellon agreed that that particular batch probably had not been treated. Wool is either chemically or heat-treated to prevent this. It is heart breaking to see your quilts ruined in this way. I am going to switch suppliers, and will wash a small quilt sandwich before using it. boomerRosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00187007387757310684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6290439243686089081.post-5973453473501356572015-12-01T19:43:36.658-08:002015-12-01T19:43:36.658-08:00Such a gorgeous quilt!

Which brand did you use. I've another batt in the closet, and would love to know before I use it....have the quilt ready and thought it would be easier for doing it myself.<br /><br />And bearding aside, very creative way to make a wreath. Looks nice and you are impressively done well before Christmas!Donna~~https://www.blogger.com/profile/08983652387362967468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6290439243686089081.post-82428209187124697752015-12-01T16:35:06.214-08:002015-12-01T16:35:06.214-08:00What brand did you use?

I have not used any yet, but just bought a few yards to give it a try on a future quilt. I researched and read where some wool batting is prewashed and some not, but had not heard about the fuzzy issue. Something to think about I guess....Rene'https://www.blogger.com/profile/04059560899969549882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6290439243686089081.post-27152871087214408472015-12-01T09:23:21.076-08:002015-12-01T09:23:21.076-08:00I had a wool duvet last year and it bearded right ...I had a wool duvet last year and it bearded right through the cover (which was a quilt. Yeah - ask me sometime about my quilted duvet covers, v. fun). Anyway, it wound up looking like a yellow lab rolled all over the bed ALL THE TIME. I sold that duvet and have no regrets!<br /><br />I've never heard about the extreme bearding on a batt though. Are both sides equally fuzzy? <br /><br />Oh and nice quilt too.Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13458070354803313376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6290439243686089081.post-9189063254049055592015-12-01T09:15:25.628-08:002015-12-01T09:15:25.628-08:00Thanks for sharing this.

Which it totally shouldn't, that's weird, especially because the quilt is so pretty! I love the wreath and how fresh those green shades are.
