batting in stock
A quilt top is only half the story. The layer inside shapes how your finished piece drapes, feels and holds up wash after wash. Browsing our batting in stock makes it easier to match the right filling to your project, from a cozy bed quilt to a quilted table runner or tote bag.
How to Choose the Right Batting
Every batting behaves a little differently. Thinking about fiber and thickness first narrows your choices quickly.
Fiber Content
- Cotton batting breathes well, drapes softly and gives quilts a flat, classic look. Many cotton battings shrink slightly after washing, creating a gently crinkled, vintage texture.
- Polyester batting is lightweight and resilient, and it holds its shape in pillows, wall hangings and quilts that will see frequent washing.
- Cotton poly blend batting balances softness with durability, which makes it a popular all-purpose pick.
Loft and Thickness
Low loft batting suits wall hangings, placemats and detailed quilting, while higher loft adds puffiness for comforters and tied quilts. Before you buy, check the recommended quilting distance on the packaging so your stitches will be spaced to hold the layers together.
