firewall batting
If your next sewing project needs to stand up to hot pans and steaming dishes, firewall batting is the layer that makes it work. This heat resistant batting is designed to sit inside kitchen accessories, adding protection that standard cotton or polyester batting simply wasn't made to provide.
What Firewall Batting Is Used For
Sewists reach for this kind of insulated batting whenever a project comes into contact with heat. Popular uses include:
- Potholders and hot pads
- Oven mitts and grill gloves
- Trivets and table runners
- Casserole carriers and bowl cozies
What to Look For
Heat Performance
Check each product description for details on heat or flame resistance so you know how the batting is intended to perform. For potholder batting and oven mitt batting, many makers combine more than one layer for extra protection.
Thickness and Handling
Consider how the batting will feel once quilted. A layer that sews smoothly and stays flexible makes mitts easier to shape and hot pads easier to grip.
Care
Review the care instructions so your finished pieces hold up to regular washing.
