Product Description
Matilda's Own Bag Batting, 100% Polyester
A Firm, Stable Batting for Bags, Placemats and High-Use Projects, cut to length in ½ metre increments
Matilda’s Own Bag Batting is specially designed for projects that require structure, durability, and long-lasting performance, a great alternative to standard foam options. Made in Australia from a unique blend of polyester fibres, this bag batting offers a firm but soft texture—providing the strength needed for high-usage items without sacrificing ease of sewing.
This batting is prewashed and preshrunk, ensuring minimal distortion and consistent results in your finished work. It’s heat-bonded rather than chemically treated, meaning there are no resins, sprays or glues—making it suitable for those with sensitivities or allergies. The bonded construction also prevents bearding, keeping your projects looking neat over time.
Despite its firmness, this batting remains easy to quilt or stitch, whether by hand or machine. Its stable nature helps bags hold their shape, while still offering the softness and flexibility needed for practical and creative sewing.
Perfect for tote bags, pouches, placemats, organisers, and other accessories that benefit from structure and support, Matilda’s Own Bag Batting is the go-to choice for sewers looking for performance without compromise.
Every order is shipped in plastic-free packaging, supporting your values as a conscious maker.
