Linda’s Batting Scissors and Hobbs Thermore TM-54 collection brings together two essential longarm quilting tools — Linda’s personally selected batting scissors for clean, smooth cuts through thick batting, and Hobbs Thermore TM-54, an ultra-thin, high-loft polyester batting beloved for garments, quilted jackets, and projects where low bulk and high warmth are both essential.
Why do I need dedicated scissors for cutting batting?
Batting is thick, fibrous, and dulls standard scissors quickly. Dedicated batting scissors have long blades and strong construction designed to cut through layers of batting cleanly and smoothly without dragging or tearing. Linda’s picks are proven performers in her own longarm studio.
What is Hobbs Thermore TM-54 batting?
Thermore TM-54 is an ultra-thin, high-loft polyester batting from Hobbs — extremely lightweight for its warmth and available in widths compatible with longarm machine loading. It’s a favorite for wearable quilts, quilted jackets, vests, and any project where warmth without bulk is the goal.
What width is Hobbs Thermore TM-54 available in?
Thermore is available in several widths suitable for both longarm machines and domestic quilting projects. Check individual product listings for exact dimensions.
Is Thermore batting machine washable?
Yes — Thermore is machine washable, making it practical for garments and wearables that need regular laundering. Follow the care instructions on the product label for best long-term results.
