The Warm & Plush Luxury Loft 100% Natural Cotton without Scrim is a high-loft, premium all-cotton batting without a stabilizing scrim. By eliminating the scrim, this batting achieves maximum softness and loft — the absence of the stabilizing mesh layer allows the cotton fibers to express their natural softness more fully. It’s the choice for quilters who prioritize exceptional natural softness above all other batting properties.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why would I choose batting without a scrim?
- Batting without a scrim has a slightly softer, more natural feel than scrimmed batting, because the scrim adds a minimal amount of structure that some quilters perceive as slightly firmer. For quilts prioritizing maximum natural cotton softness, the unscrimmed version achieves a more purely natural feel.
- What are the trade-offs of no scrim?
- Without a scrim, the batting requires closer quilting spacing to prevent shifting and bearding. Maximum recommended stitch spacing is typically 2–4" for unscrimmed battings, compared to 6–10" for scrimmed versions. Hand quilting is also easier on unscrimmed battings.
- Is Warm & Plush without scrim appropriate for longarm machines?
- Yes, but the closer stitch spacing requirement means it’s most appropriate for densely quilted custom designs rather than widely spaced pantographs. Test on a practice sandwich before committing.
- Does this batting shrink?
- Yes — approximately 3–5% on first washing, creating the classic cotton quilt crinkle appearance.
- Is this batting recommended for beginners?
- Intermediate to advanced quilters get the most from unscrimmed batting, as the closer stitch spacing requirement demands more consistent quilting density than most beginner designs achieve.
