Hobbs Heirloom® 80/20 Cotton & Polyester Twin Quilt Batting – 72" x 90"
Get the softness of cotton with the added resilience of polyester in Hobbs Heirloom® Premium 80/20 Quilt Batting. This convenient Twin-size 72" x 90" batting package combines 80% premium unbleached cotton with 20% polyester to create a versatile batting suitable for both hand and machine quilting.
Hobbs Heirloom® 80/20 is lightly needle punched and lightly resin bonded, creating a batting with approximately 1/8" loft. This construction provides more loft than some traditional cotton battings without creating an overly heavy finished quilt.
The 80/20 fiber blend offers the familiar softness and character of cotton while polyester contributes additional resilience and loft. The result is a dependable 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, providing flexibility for a variety of quilting patterns. The batting is washable and has an expected 3–5% shrinkage, which can create a soft, gently puckered appearance after laundering.
At 72" x 90", this pre-cut Twin-size package provides convenient batting coverage without requiring you to measure and cut from a larger roll.
