Description
Katahdin Premium Autumn is a midweight 4 oz batting of 100% cotton, triple-carded and needle-punched, with no scrims or resins. It is extremely stable, so you can stitch up to 8" apart.
This package measures 45" x 60", sized for baby and crib quilts, wall hangings, table runners and other small projects. The 4 oz weight gives small quilts a bit more body than a summer-weight cotton, which helps wall hangings hang flat and baby quilts feel substantial.
No pre-shrinking is required.

- Autumn 4 oz or Summer 3 oz in the crib size?
- Autumn 4 oz has more body, so it suits wall hangings and baby quilts that should feel substantial. Summer 3 oz is lighter and easier to hand quilt. Both are pure cotton with no scrim and quilt up to 8" apart. Katahdin Summer 3 oz 45" x 60"
- Is the crib 45" x 60" batt big enough for my quilt?
- Plan on batting at least 2" larger than your top on every side, and about 4" on every side if it is going on a longarm frame. This 45" x 60" batt covers finished tops up to about 41" x 56" for domestic quilting, or about 37" x 52" on a longarm. For a larger top, step up to the Autumn 72" x 90". Autumn 72" x 90"
- Katahdin vs Warm & Natural: what is the difference?
- Both are needle-punched cotton. Warm & Natural has a scrim and can be quilted up to 10" apart; Katahdin is 100% natural cotton with no scrim or resins and can be stitched up to 8" apart. Choose Katahdin when a pattern calls for pure cotton with nothing added. Warm & Natural packages
- Do I need to pre-shrink Katahdin cotton?
- No. Katahdin needs no pre-shrinking; use it straight from the package.
- Can I use Katahdin cotton for microwave bowl cozies?
- It is 100% cotton with no scrim or resins, which is what microwave projects call for, as long as the fabric and thread are also 100% cotton and there is no metallic trim. Pellon Wrap-N-Zap is the batting sold specifically for the microwave. Pellon Wrap-N-Zap
