Description
Quilters Dream Supreme is the heaviest loft in the Dream Cotton line: 100% natural cotton at half a pound per square yard, with no scrim, resin or glue. It is a dense, warm, weighty batting for quilts that are meant to feel substantial, and for wall hangings and crafts that need body. It is not the roll for a light summer quilt or for hand quilting; for those, use Select or Request.
Each roll is 120" wide by 25 yards. It is the width for king tops in one piece, and it also cuts queen, full and twin batts sideways with less waste than a narrower roll. If you rarely quilt kings, the 93" roll of Supreme Cotton is the more economical choice.
Supreme is best quilted by machine. Like the rest of the line it can be stitched up to 8" apart, shrinkage is minimal, and pre-washing is not recommended. Because it is pure cotton with no scrim, it is also microwave-safe with cotton fabric and thread, though its thickness makes it a better fit for trivets than for bowl cozies.
This roll is sold on pre-order and ships in roughly 8 weeks.

Compare and choose
- Supreme vs Deluxe Dream Cotton: how much heavier is Supreme?
- Supreme is the top of the line at half a pound of cotton per square yard; Deluxe is the next step down. Both are dense, warm cottons meant for machine quilting. Pick Supreme when you want the heaviest, most substantial quilt the line offers; pick Deluxe when you want a heavier-than-average quilt that is still easy to handle on a frame. Deluxe Natural Cotton roll
- Supreme Cotton vs Warm & Plush: which should I buy?
- Both are thick 100% cotton battings without scrim. Warm & Plush is a loftier, softer cotton; Dream Supreme is denser and heavier for its loft. For a plush, cuddly quilt choose Warm & Plush; for weight and warmth, and for wall quilts that need to hang flat and heavy, choose Supreme. Warm & Plush 90" x 25 yd roll
- Can I hand quilt Supreme?
- We do not recommend it. Supreme is dense and heavy, and hand needling through it is slow work. Quilters Dream positions it for machine quilting. For hand quilting use Request or Select Cotton from the same line. Select Natural Cotton roll
- Do I need the 120" roll, or is 93" enough?
- Buy 120" if you quilt king tops, which are 108" to 120" wide and will not fit across a 93" roll. If your biggest quilts are queen, the 93" roll of the same batting covers them with less waste and a lower price per roll. The 120" roll also cuts queen and twin batts sideways, which some longarmers prefer for production work. 93" roll
- How far apart can I quilt Supreme?
- Up to 8" apart, the same as the rest of the Dream Cotton line. The needle-punched cotton holds together without a scrim even at this weight.
- Do I need to pre-wash it?
- No. Quilters Dream does not recommend pre-washing; shrinkage is minimal. Finished quilts can be machine washed and dried.
- Do you ship batting rolls to Alaska or Hawaii?
- No. Rolls and boards ship only to the 48 contiguous states; orders from Alaska, Hawaii or outside the US are cancelled and refunded. Pre-cut packages ship to all locations. Shop packaged batting
