Hobbs Heirloom® 80/20 Cotton & Polyester Full Quilt Batting – 81" x 96"
Enjoy the softness of premium cotton with the added resilience of polyester in Hobbs Heirloom® Premium 80/20 Quilt Batting. This convenient Full-size 81" x 96" pre-cut batting combines 80% premium unbleached cotton with 20% polyester for a versatile batting designed for both hand and machine quilting.
Hobbs Heirloom® 80/20 is lightly needle punched and lightly resin bonded, resulting in approximately 1/8" loft. This construction provides comfortable dimension and a higher loft for a cotton-rich batting without creating an overly heavy finished quilt.
The 80/20 cotton-polyester blend combines the soft, traditional character of cotton with the resilience of polyester. It's an excellent all-purpose batting for bed quilts, patchwork quilts, throws, wall quilts, and other hand- or machine-quilted projects.
Quilting lines can be spaced up to 4 inches apart, giving you flexibility when selecting quilting designs and stitch density. The batting is also washable and has an expected 3–5% shrinkage, which can contribute to the soft, gently puckered texture many quilters enjoy after laundering.
At 81" x 96", this pre-cut Full-size package provides convenient coverage for appropriately sized quilts without the need to measure and cut batting from a bulk roll.
