It eliminates the need for pins, basting spray, or hand basting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does fusible batting affect the feel of the finished quilt?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Once quilted and washed, the fusible finish softens significantly and the quilt drapes and feels like a traditionally basted quilt. The difference is minimal in the finished product.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is Hobbs Fusible batting good for longarm quilting?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: It is primarily designed for domestic machine quilting and hand quilting. For longarm quilting, standard Hobbs 80\/20 is typically preferred since longarm frames use leaders and do not require basting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What temperature do I use to activate the fusible batting?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Use a medium-heat iron without steam, pressing firmly for several seconds in each area. Always test on a scrap piece first to confirm the bond without scorching your fabrics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can I use fusible batting for quilted garments?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes, it is excellent for quilted jackets, vests, and bags where you need the layers to stay perfectly aligned during construction and quilting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does the fusible side affect needle penetration during quilting?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: The fusible layer is very thin and does not significantly affect needle penetration for either hand or machine quilting. Most quilters notice no difference in quilting feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Will the fusible adhesive gum up my sewing machine needle?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: If properly fused and the batting is not over-heated, residue on the needle is minimal. Clean your needle regularly with a needle cleaner or rubbing alcohol if you notice any buildup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is Hobbs Fusible batting washable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes, once properly fused and quilted, the finished quilt is fully washable. Follow standard quilt washing guidelines — gentle cycle, cold water, low heat drying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What quilt sizes does the Hobbs Fusible batting package come in?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: It is available in standard quilt sizes from crib through king, making it easy to select the right size for your specific project without waste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How does fusible batting save time compared to spray basting?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Fusible batting creates a permanent, uniform bond across the entire quilt surface with no overspray, fumes, or sticky residue on your work surface — making it faster and cleaner than spray basting for most projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eShop the \u003cstrong\u003eHobbs Heirloom 80\/20 Fusible Batting Package\u003c\/strong\u003e at Linda's Electric Quilters and simplify your quilt basting process today.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"hobbs-heirloom-fusible-80-20-batting-package","title":"Hobbs Heirloom 80\/20 Fusible Batting Package","description":"\u003ch2 class=\"tabcontent prod-detail-desc\"\u003eHobbs Heirloom 80\/20 Fusible Batting Package\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHobbs Heirloom 80\/20 Fusible Batting Package:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tabcontent prod-detail-desc\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tabcontent prod-detail-desc\"\u003eHobbs Heirloom Premium 80\/20 Fusible Cotton\/Poly Blend Batting is manufactured in the same manner as our Hobbs Heirloom\u003csup\u003e \u003c\/sup\u003e Premium 80\/20 (Natural) Cotton\/ Poly Blend Batting  it is lightly bonded and needle-punched for exceptional strength and durability and, once inside a project, it machine-washable (\u003cem\u003eand who doesn't love that?!\u003c\/em\u003e).\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tabcontent prod-detail-desc\" id=\"description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHobbs Heirloom Premium 80\/20 Fusible Cotton\/Poly Blend Batting has an additional water-soluble, fusing medium applied to both sides of the batting, enabling quilters to simultaneously adhere their quilt top and back to the batting in one quick pressing.
