Description
The Gypsy Quilter Cotton Batting puts 100% cotton on a narrow 10" x 10-yard roll, so you cut exactly what a small project needs instead of trimming scraps off a bed-size batt. It is made for quilt-as-you-go blocks, placemats, table runners and other small quilting, and it can be floated under in-the-hoop embroidery projects.
It is needle-punched with no scrim, weighs 4oz per square yard and has enough body to add dimension. Quilt lines can be up to 8" apart. Because it is 100% cotton with no scrim, it is microwave safe when paired with 100% cotton fabric and thread: heat in 2-minute increments, up to 6 minutes.

Compare and choose
- Is this batting microwave safe?
- Yes, with conditions. It is 100% cotton with no scrim, so it can go in the microwave when paired with 100% cotton fabric and 100% cotton thread. Heat in 2-minute increments, up to 6 minutes. The Gypsy Quilter Embroidery Batting has a scrim and is not microwave safe.
- Cotton Batting vs Embroidery Batting from The Gypsy Quilter: which do I need?
- The Cotton Batting has no scrim, which keeps it microwave safe and soft for quilt-as-you-go and table linens. The Embroidery Batting adds a scrim so it can be hooped and carry up to 8,000 stitches per layer without extra stabilizer, but it is not microwave safe. Gypsy Quilter Embroidery Batting 10"
- Which width should I buy?
- Match the width to your largest piece. 10" and 12" rolls suit quilt-as-you-go blocks, mug rugs and bowl cozies; 18" fits placemat pieces cut 14" x 18" and narrow runners; 24" handles wider runners and two 12" blocks side by side. Every width is 10 yards long. Gypsy Quilter Cotton Batting 24" roll
- How far apart can I quilt it?
- Up to 8" between quilting lines. It is needle-punched, which holds the fibers together without a scrim.
- Can I use it for bowl cozies?
- Yes. It is 100% cotton with no scrim, so it works for microwave bowl cozies with 100% cotton fabric and thread. If you want pieces already cut to shape, see the Bowl Cozy Pre-Cut Batting. Bowl Cozy Pre-Cut Batting 8ct
