Product Description
Heirloom Premium Natural Wool Wadding Pack - Crib Size
Looking for premium wool wadding in a smaller size? Hobbs Heirloom Premium 100% Wool Wadding is now available in an Extra Large Crib Size pack—perfect for baby quilts, lap quilts, and wall hangings. We hand cut each pack in-house to 54" x 60" (137 x 152 cm) and ship it in eco-friendly, plastic-free packaging with no extra cost.
This high-quality wadding is made from the finest superwashed wool, offering a soft, luxurious feel with excellent loft and stitch definition. It’s lightweight, breathable, and comfortable in all climates—even warmer ones. The superwashing process helps smooth the wool fibres, reducing shrinkage and making it gentle to the touch. It’s also naturally strong and resistant to bearding or fibre migration.
Whether you're quilting a baby gift, a snuggly lap quilt, or an artistic wall hanging, this versatile size offers plenty of creative possibilities. You can stitch up to 4" apart and we recommend pairing it with medium to dark fabrics to avoid any show-through from the natural wool tone. For lighter fabrics, do a quick fabric test just to be sure.
Care is simple: hand wash in cool water and lay flat to dry for best results. You can also use a gentle machine cycle with cold water—just avoid strong spin cycles. Start the drying process with a few minutes in a no-heat tumble dryer, then finish drying flat. Be sure to skip high heat or steam, which could felt the wool and affect the quilt’s drape.
A beautiful and practical choice for smaller quilting projects—exclusive to Morris Works.
