Let’s choose the batting your quilt deserves.

Hi quilting friends, Corey here!

You’ve chosen the fabric. Now let’s choose how your finished quilt will feel. Batting changes the drape, texture, and even how those fabric colors look. Here are five useful ways to match Hobbs batting to the project on your sewing table.

01 / MATCH THE PROJECT

The everyday quilt you reach for

Heirloom 80/20

Making a couch throw or a bed quilt? The cotton/poly blend gives you a soft, low-loft finish with a traditional quilted look. Closer quilting creates a flatter finish; keep stitching within the batting’s recommended 4-inch spacing.

The quilt with all that beautiful white

Heirloom Bleached 80/20

A single white, plastic-wrapped rectangular package is shown in a close-up, straight-on product view against a gray background, with soft, even lighti...

White backgrounds deserve a little extra thought underneath. Bleached 80/20 is a smart match for white and very light fabrics because its whiter fibers help keep those colors looking bright.

The dramatic dark quilt

Heirloom Black 80/20

A close-up, front-facing view of a rectangular black plastic-wrapped package against a plain gray background, with glossy, crinkled wrapping and a lar...

Working with black, navy, or other deep shades? Black batting helps avoid the light-colored fibers that can show against a dark quilt top. Test it under any pale blocks in a mixed-color design first.

The quilt where the stitching is the star

Heirloom Wool

A front-facing product photo shows a rectangular, cream-colored package of white batting wrapped in glossy plastic against a plain gray background, wi...

Feathers, curves, and beautiful texture deserve room to shine. Wool’s resilient loft gives quilting dimension while keeping the quilt lightweight. Choose it when texture matters, and plan for gentle care.

The project that needs less bulk

Thermore

A front-facing product package is centered in a close-up against a white background: a crinkled silver-gray bag with a colorful orange, teal, blue, an...

For quilted clothing, miniatures, or a T-shirt quilt that is already heavy, consider Thermore. This thin polyester batting offers a low-profile layer without adding much weight.

Corey’s finishing tip
Before you buy: think about fabric color, the amount of loft you want, and how the finished quilt will be washed. A small test sandwich can tell you a lot.

A little extra encouragement: Hobbs batting is 45% off. Once you know the finish you want, choose the batting that helps you get there.
