What projects are not recommended for this wadding?

Troubleshooting
Wadding feels lumpy after washing.
Ensure the wadding is completely dry before use. Avoid high heat during drying, as this can sometimes cause fibers to clump. Gentle agitation during washing and proper drying can help maintain an even loft.
Wadding is difficult to cut cleanly.
Use sharp fabric scissors or a rotary cutter with a fresh blade for precise cuts. Cutting on a flat surface can also help.
Wadding shifts during sewing.
For quilting or larger projects, consider basting the wadding to the fabric layers using pins or temporary spray adhesive before sewing to prevent movement.
