The 96\" roll provides 30 yards for 10–12 quilts and is more economical per quilt for active studios. The package is the right choice for home quilters who quilt occasionally and don't need bulk batting inventory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What sizes are available in the Hobbs Heirloom 80\/20 Package?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Packages are available in Crib, Twin, Full, Queen, and King — each pre-cut to the standard dimensions for that quilt format.
