Product Description
Heirloom Premium 80/20 Wadding in a 7.5 Metre Roll - 96" Width
If you’re after a soft, stable quilt wadding that’s easy to handle and made to last, Hobbs Heirloom Premium 80/20 Cotton Blend is a tried-and-true favourite. Blending 80% high-quality natural cotton with 20% fine polyester, this low-loft wadding offers the best of both worlds: the breathability and feel of cotton with the added strength and reduced shrinkage of polyester.
It needles beautifully—whether you’re quilting by hand or machine—and holds its shape well over time, even with frequent use or washing. The polyester helps the wadding resist bearding and stretching, it ideal for beginners and experienced quilters alike.
This convenient 7.5 metre roll offers continuous length at a generous 96" (244 cm) width, giving you ample wadding for multiple quilt projects or one oversized piece. You can quilt up to 4" (10.2 cm) apart, and once your quilt is complete, it’s fully machine washable with an expected shrinkage of around 3–5%—just enough to give that classic, softly crinkled finish many quilters love.
There’s no need to pre-wash this wadding. Simply piece, baste, quilt, and enjoy the soft, flexible drape it brings to your finished quilt.
