For studios that regularly finish quilts right to the batting edge, the extra 12\" of width provides meaningful insurance against running short.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Why bleached white batting for certain quilts?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Any quilt top featuring white, off-white, pastels, or bright colors benefits from white batting — natural cream batting can create a slightly warm haze visible through light fabrics, subtly warming the colors. Bleached white batting ensures your quilt top reads exactly as intended.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How many queen-size quilts does the 30-yard roll provide?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: At 108\" wide × 30 yards, expect approximately 10–12 queen-size quilts with standard longarm overhang allowance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is the bleached version the same performance as natural Heirloom 80\/20?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Identical — same 80\/20 fiber blend, same needle-punching, same loft, same quilting distance recommendation. The bleaching process affects only the color, not the performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How far apart can I quilt this batting?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: No more than 4 inches apart — the standard Hobbs Heirloom recommendation for all 80\/20 colorways.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does bleached batting shrink the same as natural?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes — expect 3–5% shrinkage on first wash regardless of batting color. The cotton content drives shrinkage, not the bleaching process.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is this batting the right choice for white-on-white quilts?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes — bleached white batting is the correct choice for white-on-white quilts where any warm undertone from natural batting would be visible and unwanted against the bright white fabric surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What thread pairs best with bleached white 80\/20 batting?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: White threads — 10000 White Glide, 10002 Super White Glide, or 401 Snow So Fine! — coordinate most naturally with bleached white batting for a consistent, bright quilt sandwich tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Does 108\" wide batting load differently on longarm leaders than 96\"?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: It extends slightly further on both sides of standard leaders. Verify your frame accommodates 108\" width before ordering — most major longarm brands do.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is Hobbs Bleached 80\/20 108\" Roll in stock at Linda's?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Check the current product listing for live availability.
