Frequently Asked Questions

Who needs a 120-inch wide batting roll?

Longarm quilters working on oversized kings, California kings, or large show quilts — the width eliminates batting seams and coverage risk on the biggest projects.

How many king-size battings can I get from a 30-yard roll?

Typically 8–10 king-size battings depending on finished dimensions, which makes the per-quilt cost very competitive.

How does the 120" roll compare to the 96" version?

The blend and construction are identical — the difference is purely width. If you primarily quilt queens, the 96" roll is sufficient; for kings and oversized projects, the 120" is worth it.

Does it shrink when washed?

Expect 3–5% shrinkage on the first wash, producing the desirable antique crinkle finish.

Is it suitable for dense free-motion quilting?

Yes — the needle-punched construction and low loft handle dense pantographs, allover free-motion, and detailed custom work well. Hobbs recommends quilting no more than 4" apart.
