batting sheets
The right batting sheets give your project its warmth, body and finished feel, whether you are layering a quilt, padding a cushion or adding softness to a handmade gift. Choosing well starts with knowing how fiber and thickness affect the result.
How to Choose Batting Sheets
Fiber Content
Cotton batting breathes well, drapes naturally and gives quilts a classic, flat look. Polyester batting is lightweight, holds its shape and resists mildew, making it a good fit for pillows and upholstery. Blends aim to balance the best of both.
Loft and Thickness
Low loft batting is ideal for quilts with detailed stitching and for wearable projects. High loft batting creates plush comforters, puffy tied quilts and well-padded seat cushions.
Popular Uses
- Bed quilts, wall hangings and baby blankets
- Chair pads, headboards and upholstery padding
- Placemats, pot holders and bags
- Stuffed toys and seasonal crafts
Before you buy, measure your project and allow a few extra inches on every side so you have room for quilting or stapling.
