Hobbs Cotton Blend 80/20 Batting (Sold by Meter)

Hobbs Heirloom Premium 80/20 Cotton/ Poly Blend Batting is one of the most popular battings on the market, and for good reason.  It offers more loft and less weight than traditional cotton batting, is durable and machine-washable, and is suitable for a variety of applications, including for use in: utility quits, children's quilts, charity quilts, and for quilts being given as gifts, as well as in table runners, placemats, wall quilts/ hangings.

Hobbs Heirloom Premium 80/20 Cotton/poly Blend Batting is wonderful to quilt by hand or machine.  This batting is made with a blend of 80% natural cotton and 20% find polyester, is needle punched, and has a light resin bonding to provide exceptional strength and durability.  Close quilting yields a flat, low-loft appearance, while more space between stitching lines yields a slightly higher loft.

Hobbs Heirloom Premium 80/20 Cotton/ Poly Blend Batting should be used with medium or dark fabrics.  If used with light coluored fabrics, unbleached cotton can slightly darken white and light or pastel colours.  

Quilting/ stitching should be every 4", or closer, and quilters may experience shrinkage of 3-5"%.
