Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose bleached over unbleached batting?

Bleached batting is bright white, preventing the natural cream tone of unbleached cotton from shadowing through white, light, or brightly colored quilt tops. It is the standard choice for modern and white-on-white quilts.

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

A typical queen requires approximately 3 yards of 108" wide batting, leaving several inches of overhang on all sides for longarm loading.

Is bleached batting safe for sensitive skin?

Hobbs scours the batting thoroughly and removes bleaching residues — it is widely used for baby quilts without issue.

Will bleached batting yellow over time?

Stored away from light and heat it holds its white appearance for years. Finished quilts stored in breathable cotton bags resist yellowing best.

Does it work for hand quilting?

Yes — the cotton content is needle-friendly and the low loft lets stitches sink in cleanly.
