The result is an exceptionally puffy, dramatically dimensional quilt that looks and feels like it is filled with clouds. It is the maximum-impact polyester batting option.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Who should choose 16oz polyester batting?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Customers who want the most dramatically puffy, warmest, most cozy bed quilt possible — particularly in cold climates, and particularly when a plush, dimensional visual appearance is a priority over a more refined or traditional quilted look.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How far apart can I quilt Hobbs Poly 16oz?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Hobbs recommends up to 8 inches apart for their polyester battings. The high loft of 16oz means dense quilting compresses the batting significantly — many longarm quilters prefer open designs on high-loft batting to let the puffiness show between stitching lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is 16oz polyester batting easy to handle on a longarm machine?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: The extra bulk requires careful loading and may need more tension management than lighter batting. Work deliberately when loading and ensure even tension across the roll width before beginning to quilt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is the 96\" width right for queen quilts?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes — 96\" provides comfortable overhang for queen quilt loading on longarm leaders. For king quilts, consider a wider format.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is 16oz polyester batting hypoallergenic?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes — all polyester batting is naturally hypoallergenic, does not harbor dust mites, and is safe for allergy-sensitive quilters and customers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is 16oz polyester batting machine washable?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes — gentle cycle, low heat tumble dry. The heavy polyester maintains its dramatic loft recovery through regular machine laundering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How does 16oz polyester compare to Hobbs Cloudloft?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Both are high-loft polyester battings. Cloudloft is Hobbs' branded premium high-loft option. 16oz batting achieves similar dramatic puffiness through sheer fiber weight. Both create the cloud-like dimensional effect customers love — check the specific loft height of each product for comparison.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does Hobbs Poly 16oz batting beard through quilt tops?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: The heavier fiber content requires using tightly woven quilting cotton on the quilt top to prevent fiber migration through the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is Hobbs Poly 16oz 96\" Wide Roll in stock at Linda's?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Check the current product listing for live availability.
