The higher loft also makes quilting designs appear more dramatically raised than lighter-weight battings.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDoes 12oz batting require different quilting tension settings?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eThe extra thickness of 12oz batting may require slight tension adjustments on some longarm machines, particularly at the beginning of a new roll. Test on a sample before quilting the actual quilt top.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eWhat stitch spacing is appropriate for 12oz polyester?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eHobbs recommends stitching within 4–6\" for their polyester battings. With 12oz, staying within this spacing ensures the batting is adequately secured and prevents shifting or bunching in high-use quilts.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eIs 12oz polyester heavier and harder to quilt?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e12oz is physically thicker and slightly more resistant than lighter weights, but it’s still well within the range of what longarm machines handle without difficulty. Hand quilters may find 12oz more challenging to pull a needle through compared to lighter battings.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDoes 12oz polyester shrink?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eNo — 100% polyester batting does not shrink. It maintains its loft and dimensions through machine washing, which is an advantage over cotton or cotton-blend battings.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"hobbs-poly-12oz-96-wide-batting","title":"Hobbs Poly 12oz 96\" Wide Batting","description":"\u003ch2\u003eHobbs Poly 12oz 96\" Wide Batting\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHobbs Poly 12oz 96\" Wide Batting:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHobbs Polyester batting adds wonderful loft and warmth.
