96″ Hobbs Tuscany Cotton/Wool Wadding

Description

Hobbs Tuscany Cotton Wool Wadding is a wonderful blend of 80% fine cotton and 20% super-washed wool. It is designed for hand quilting, as well as for machine and long-arm projects, and resists bunching and fibre migration.

The addition of the wool adds a wonderful loft, which gives greater detail to the stitching pattern, and the wool not only lends a nice drape and softness without the stability of the wadding being compromised, it assists in keeping creases from settling into quilts due to the wool not having a memory for creases. Hobbs Tuscany Cotton Wool Batting is perfect for bed quilts and for show quilts.

Hobbs Tuscany Cotton Wool Wadding is specifically designed to be used with medium or dark-coloured fabrics. If used with white or very light fabrics, the wool and unbleached cotton can slightly darken light fabrics.

Quilts with this blend of fibres can be washed many times and will get softer over time. Gentle machine washing (in cool water and on a delicate cycle, with no heavy agitation or spinning) and air drying or low/no-heat drying are suggested.

Quilting/stitching should be every 4″ inches, or closer, and quilters may experience shrinkage of 3-5%.

Pre-washing is not recommended for this wadding.
