Frequently Asked Questions

How many yards do I need for a king-size quilt?

For a standard king quilt (approximately 108" x 108"), you need about 3.5 yards of 120" batting with adequate overhang for longarm frame loading. Order 4 yards for a generous margin.

Is buying by the yard more expensive than buying a roll?

Per-yard pricing is slightly higher than the roll price, but buying by the yard eliminates waste if you only need a small amount and don’t have storage for a full 30-yard roll.

Is this the same Hobbs Heirloom 80/20 batting as the roll?

Yes — identical batting, just sold in single-yard increments rather than a 30-yard roll. Same fiber content, scrim, loft, and performance.

Can I order fractional yards (e.g., 2.5 yards)?

Check the product listing for minimum order increments. Most by-the-yard listings sell in whole or half-yard increments.

What thread colors work well with 80/20 batting?

The Hobbs Heirloom 80/20 has a soft natural off-white color. Cream, linen, and natural thread blend seamlessly; white thread will have slight contrast. Both are widely used depending on the quilter’s preference.
