dacron quilting batting
Dacron quilting batting is a go-to choice when you want a quilt that feels light, looks lofty, and holds up wash after wash. This batting is made from polyester fiber, so it resists mildew and moths, dries quickly, and keeps its shape. That makes it a favorite for everyday quilts, baby blankets, and craft projects.
Why Quilters Choose Polyester Quilt Batting
Compared with cotton, polyester batting is lighter for its warmth and less prone to shrinking, so your finished quilt keeps a crisp, even look. It drapes softly and adds dimension that shows off both hand and machine quilting stitches.
What to Look For
- Loft: Low-loft batting suits flat, traditional quilts and wall hangings, while high-loft batting creates puffy comforters and tied quilts.
- Construction: Bonded batting resists shifting and bearding. Check the recommended quilting distance before you plan your stitch spacing.
- Size: Choose a roll or precut piece that leaves a few extra inches on every side of your quilt top.
