Premium Batting From Recycled Plastic Bottles
Quilters Dream Select Green Batting Queen Roll at 93 inches x 30 yards is the eco-conscious choice in the Quilters Dream batting line: polyester fiber derived from post-consumer recycled PET plastic bottles, processed into batting at the same quality standard as the standard Select line. The finished batting performs like any Select-tier polyester -- dimensional loft, consistent density, excellent longarm-loading behavior -- with the added dimension that every yard of Green batting represents recovered plastic that would otherwise be in a landfill.
Why Green Batting Matters
For quilters and studios with environmental commitments, the Green batting provides a way to align material choices with values without compromising batting quality. For studios serving clients who care about sustainability, it provides a premium offering that adds meaningful differentiation. And for quilts made for recipients who would appreciate the environmental story, it adds a dimension to the gift's meaning that standard polyester batting cannot provide.
