polyester fill
The right polyester fill is what turns a sewn shell into a plump pillow, a huggable plush toy or a cushion that keeps its shape. Lightweight, washable and easy to work with, polyester fiberfill is the go-to stuffing for sewists and crafters of every skill level.
Why Sewists Choose Polyester Fiberfill
Polyester stuffing resists clumping, dries quickly after washing and holds its loft over time. Because it is a synthetic fiber, many people also consider it a practical hypoallergenic stuffing alternative to down or feathers.
Popular Uses
- Pillow stuffing for throw pillows, bed pillows and pillow forms
- Toy stuffing for plush animals, dolls and soft sculptures
- Seat cushions, pet beds and ornaments
- Holiday decor, pincushions and small craft projects
What to Look For
Consider the texture you want. Standard loose fiberfill packs easily into small or detailed shapes, while cluster fiber fill forms soft balls that feel extra fluffy in pillows. Think about firmness, too: add more fill for a supportive cushion or less for a squishy, relaxed feel. For toys meant for young children, check the label for safety and care information.
