Description
Pellon 100% polyester batting on a 60" x 20 yard roll is the throw-and-craft width. Cut continuous lengths for lap quilts, baby quilts, table runners, placemats, wall hangings and bag interiors without seaming packaged pieces. It is not wide enough for bed quilts in one piece; for those use the 90" roll or 96" roll.
The batting is thin and even: 1/8" loft, 0-3% shrinkage, and quilting lines up to 4" apart while keeping strength and flexibility. It gives crisp stitch definition, keeps projects light, and does not need pre-washing. Washable by hand or machine and dry cleanable.
This roll ships to you directly from Pellon.

Compare and choose
- What can I make with 60" wide batting?
- Throws, lap quilts, baby and crib quilts, table runners, placemats, wall hangings and bag interiors. A 20-yard roll handles about ten 60" x 72" throws or sixteen crib quilts, and dozens of small projects.
- Is 60" batting wide enough for bed quilts?
- Not without piecing. A twin top is about 72" wide, so even the smallest bed size exceeds this roll. For twin through queen choose the 90" or 96" rolls; for kings, the 120" roll. Pellon Polyester 90" x 9 yd roll
- Roll or 60" x 60" throw package?
- The throw package is one pre-cut piece for one project. The 20-yard roll is the same batting cut to any length you need, so a long table runner or an oversize 60" x 80" throw comes off the roll in one piece. If you make more than three or four throws a year, the roll is the better value. Pellon Polyester 60" x 60" throw package
- Does Pellon polyester batting need to be pre-washed?
- No. Pellon rates it at 0-3% shrinkage, so it goes straight from the package to the quilt and the finished quilt keeps its dimensions with very little crinkle. Polyester also dries quickly and resists mildew, which makes it a practical choice for quilts that get washed often.
- Can I use polyester batting for bowl cozies or hot pads?
- No. Polyester can melt or scorch in the microwave. For microwave projects use Pellon Wrap-N-Zap, which is 100% natural cotton with no scrim and no synthetic fiber, and sew it with cotton thread. Pellon Wrap-N-Zap 45" x 1 yd package
- Polyester vs 100% cotton batting: which should I pick?
- Pellon polyester is lighter, warmer for its weight, does not shrink in any meaningful way, and gives crisp stitch definition. Cotton with scrim is flatter, breathes better, shrinks 3-5% for a crinkled antique look, and can be quilted up to 10" apart instead of 4". Pick polyester for easy-care quilts, kids' quilts and tied comforters; pick cotton for traditional bed quilts and anything you want to feel like fabric. Pellon Natural Cotton with Scrim queen package
