Hobbs Heirloom Bleached 80/20 Batting 108" × 30-Yard Roll
Hobbs Heirloom Premium Bleached 80/20 Batting is an excellent choice for quilts made with white, pastel, or very light-colored fabrics. The cotton is bleached to a bright white, helping prevent the shadowing or dull appearance that natural, unbleached batting can create behind light fabrics.
Made from 80% bleached cotton and 20% fine polyester, this batting combines the softness and traditional drape of cotton with the strength and stability of polyester. Its bonded, needle-punched construction provides consistent loft and helps resist shifting, bunching, and bearding.
The generous 108" width accommodates many queen- and king-size quilt tops without piecing the batting. Each roll contains 30 continuous yards, making it ideal for longarm quilters, quilting businesses, and frequent quilters.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose bleached batting instead of natural batting?
Bleached white batting helps prevent the slight shadowing that unbleached cotton can create behind white and light-colored fabrics, keeping pale quilts looking bright and crisp.
How far apart can I space my quilting stitches?
Quilting stitches may be spaced up to 4" apart. Closer stitching creates a flatter, more defined, and durable finish.
Should I pre-wash the batting?
No. Pre-washing is not recommended. Expect approximately 3% to 5% shrinkage during the first wash.
