Frequently Asked Questions

When should I choose 9oz over 6oz?

Choose 9oz for tied quilts, comforters, winter bed quilts, and any project where maximum warmth and a dramatic puffy appearance are the point. Choose 6oz when you plan denser quilting designs.

How does the loft affect longarm quilting?

Quilt at a slightly slower speed and favor open pantographs or allover patterns with generous spacing — work with the loft rather than against it.

Is 9oz too warm for summer quilts?

Usually yes — for warm climates or summer weight, a 6oz poly, cotton, or bamboo batting is more comfortable. 9oz is built for cold-weather warmth.

Does it survive machine washing?

Yes — wash gentle, tumble low, and the polyester recovers full loft. It is one of the lowest-maintenance high-loft battings available.

Is it hypoallergenic?

Yes — 100% polyester doesn't support dust mites, mold, or mildew, making it a strong choice for allergy-sensitive households.
