Frequently Asked Questions

What is the advantage of bamboo/cotton blend over pure cotton?

Bamboo fibers add exceptional softness and a subtle natural sheen that pure cotton cannot match. The bamboo also contributes natural moisture-wicking properties, making the finished quilt more comfortable for use as a bed quilt. The cotton content provides familiar batting behavior and performance.

How many queen quilts does a 6-yard roll yield?

At 3 yards per queen quilt, a 6-yard roll provides enough for 2 queen quilts — ideal for sampling the batting before purchasing a larger roll.

Does Pellon bamboo/cotton batting require pre-washing?

Bamboo batting has minimal shrinkage compared to cotton. Check the Pellon bamboo product instructions for specific pre-wash recommendations.

Is the scrim necessary for machine quilting?

The scrim provides stability during loading and stitching on longarm and domestic machines, preventing batting migration and allowing slightly wider stitch spacing than unscrimmed battings.

Is Pellon bamboo batting comparable to Quilters Dream bamboo?

Both use bamboo/cotton blends with similar softness qualities. Specific construction differences exist between manufacturers. Many quilters find the Pellon version an excellent value-priced bamboo option.
