Frequently Asked Questions

How does Warm 80/20 compare to Hobbs Heirloom 80/20?

Both are 80/20 cotton/poly blends in similar loft profiles. Warm Company’s 80/20 is known for its clean cotton preparation; Hobbs Heirloom is known for consistency and scrim stability. Many studios carry both and prefer one based on specific quilt requirements.

Is 110" width sufficient for king-size quilts?

110" accommodates most standard queen quilts (approximately 90" x 108") as a single piece with loading overhang. For king quilts (108" x 108"), you will need 1–2 additional inches of overhang, which may require trimming or a seamed batting for full king coverage. Consider the 120" roll for king production.

Does an 80/20 blend shrink after washing?

The cotton component will shrink approximately 3–5% on the first wash, creating a slight puckering effect. The polyester component minimizes shrinkage somewhat compared to 100% cotton. Pre-wash if you want a flat finish.

How far apart can I quilt on Warm 80/20?

The Warm Company recommends quilting no more than 4–6 inches apart on their 80/20 blend. The cotton component requires closer quilting than polyester to prevent shifting over time.

Is this batting available in smaller cuts for individual quilts?

The 25-yard roll is a production size. For individual quilts, look for the Warm & Natural or Warm & White pre-cut package sizes available at Linda’s Electric Quilters.
