Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Thermore different from regular polyester batting?

It is purpose-built for wearables: exceptionally thin and flat so garments move with the body, buttonholes function properly, and multiple seam layers sew without bulk buildup.

Can I use Thermore in a bed quilt?

You can, but it isn't the best tool for that job — standard Heirloom 80/20 or Polydown gives a bed quilt better warmth and texture. Thermore shines in garments and structured projects.

Why is it the go-to for quilted jackets?

The flat profile keeps the garment silhouette professional — seams press flat, the fabric drapes, and the jacket stays light while still insulating.

Does it work for quilted bags and totes?

Yes — it gives bags structure without stiffness and sews easily through handles and layered seams on a standard machine.

How close do I need to quilt it?

Keep quilting lines within 2–3 inches to keep the thin batting stable over the life of the project.
