Hobbs Heirloom® Premium 80/20 Cotton/Poly Blend Batting stands out as a top choice for quilters seeking high-quality and reliable batting. Combining 80% natural cotton with 20% fine polyester, this batting offers an excellent loft-to-weight ratio, making your quilts lighter and easier to handle. Its needle-punched construction and light resin bonding ensure exceptional strength and durability, making it suitable for a broad range of projects including utility quilts, children’s quilts, and even table runners.
Quilters will appreciate the versatility of this batting, which performs well with both hand and machine quilting techniques. The batting can be quilted closely for a flat, low-loft appearance or spaced further apart for a loftier finish, providing creative flexibility. It is recommended to quilt or stitch every 4 inches or closer, with the potential for slight shrinkage of 3-5%.
Designed for use with medium or dark fabrics, Hobbs Heirloom® Premium 80/20 may slightly darken light or pastel colors due to its unbleached cotton content. We advise quilters to familiarize themselves with the batting by testing on sample projects to achieve the best results. Pre-washing is not recommended, as it may affect the batting’s quality.
Available in convenient Twin (72″ x 90″), Queen (90″ x 108″), and King (120″ x 120″) sizes, as well as by the roll, this product is a staple for both hobbyists and professional quilters alike.
