Pellon Bamboo/Cotton Batting with Scrim
Pellon's Bamboo/Cotton Batting brings eco-luxury to the batting aisle — a blend of bamboo-derived fibres and cotton that delivers silky softness, excellent drape, and natural breathability beyond standard cotton batting. The bamboo content adds a subtle lustrous quality to the finished quilt and a noticeably softer hand. Scrim-stabilised for consistent feed and longarm performance. Available in a full range from craft through queen, plus a 6-yard bolt for intermediate project use. The all-cotton siblings are covered in the Pellon Natural Cotton guide and Pellon White Cotton guide, and bamboo fans working off the roll should see the Bosal Kennebago bamboo roll.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does bamboo add to a cotton batting?
Softness and drape, mostly — bamboo-derived fibre is finer and silkier than cotton, so the blend produces a quilt with a smoother hand and a more fluid fall. It also breathes and wicks moisture exceptionally well, making bamboo blends a favourite for baby quilts and warm-climate bed quilts.
Is bamboo batting durable enough for everyday quilts?
Yes — the cotton content and needle-punched scrim give it the same structural stability as Pellon's all-cotton battings, with the same generous quilting spacing. Wash gently in cool water and dry low, as you would any premium natural batting, and it holds up to regular use.
Which size should I start with?
The crib package is the classic entry point — bamboo's softness is most appreciated on baby quilts — while the throw and twin cover lap quilts and everyday beds. If you fall for the hand of it, the 90" x 6-yard bolt is the economical way to keep bamboo blend on hand for several projects.
