Frequently Asked Questions
- How is Hobbs Premium Cotton different from Hobbs 80/20?
- Premium Cotton is 100% cotton — no polyester content. It provides a more natural, traditional feel than the 80/20 blend. 80/20 has more loft resilience due to the polyester content; all-cotton provides more natural drape and the classic cotton “antique” shrinkage crinkle effect.
- How many queen quilts per 30-yard roll?
- At approximately 3 yards per queen quilt, approximately 10 queen quilts.
- What stitch spacing is required?
- Check current Hobbs Heirloom Premium Cotton specifications. Most Hobbs cotton battings require quilting within 4–6 inches.
- Does Premium Cotton shrink?
- Yes — cotton batting shrinks approximately 3–5% on first washing, creating the distinctive crinkle effect that many quilters specifically want in traditional-style quilts.
- Is this appropriate for heirloom quilts?
- Yes — 100% cotton batting is the traditional heirloom batting choice. Hobbs Heirloom Premium Cotton is specifically designed for fine quiltsmanship applications.
