Exceeding even the 16oz version in loft and thickness, the 20oz provides the most extreme dimensional quilting effect available — deep valleys and towering raised areas that create a sculptural, almost three-dimensional quilting surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eHow does 20oz compare to 16oz Hobbs poly?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e20oz is noticeably thicker and loftier than 16oz — more dramatic dimensional effect, more weight, and higher loft per square inch. Use 20oz when 16oz is simply not enough loft for the showpiece effect you need.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eWho uses 20oz batting?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eShow-quality bed quilts made for display rather than everyday use, craft vendors making statement quilted items, and studios fulfilling special orders for ultra-dramatic quilted gifts.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCan longarm machines handle 20oz batting?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eMost can, but very thick batting requires tension adjustment, slower speed, and testing. Check your machine’s specifications for maximum batting thickness. Test thoroughly before loading a finished quilt.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eWhat stitch density showcases 20oz batting best?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eVery dense stitching — 1–2\" spacing creates maximum contrast between deeply stitched channels and towering raised areas. Open designs waste the dramatic loft potential of 20oz batting.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eDoes 20oz polyester maintain loft after washing?\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003ePolyester loft is resilient. Wash gently and dry on low heat to preserve maximum loft over the life of the quilt.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/lindas.com\/collections\/hobbs-poly-20oz-96-wide-roll-high-loft-polyester-aeo.oembed","provider":"Linda's Electric Quilters ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
