Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose the white version over natural?
White is the correct choice when quilting with white, very light, or sheer fabrics where unbleached natural batting tones could show through. For most quilts with medium or dark fabric content, natural batting performs identically and typically costs less.
What stitch spacing is recommended?
Quilters Dream recommends quilting within 8" for Select cotton batting. This accommodates most all-over and custom quilting designs.
Does white cotton batting shrink the same as natural?
Yes — approximately 3–5% on first washing. The bleaching process does not significantly affect shrinkage behavior.
Is Quilters Dream white cotton appropriate for heirloom quilting?
Yes — the premium Select grade with bright white fiber is an excellent choice for heirloom quilts with white or light-colored tops where batting purity and color are important considerations.
What sizes are available?
