Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the benefits of a cotton-wool blend batting?
- The blend delivers cotton’s natural breathability and familiar feel with wool’s superior warmth-to-weight ratio. The finished quilt is warmer than a cotton batting at the same weight, or lighter than a wool batting at the same warmth level.
- Is Tuscany Cotton Wool appropriate for summer quilts?
- The cotton content provides more breathability than pure wool, making Cotton Wool more versatile across seasons than pure wool. For warm-climate or summer use, cotton or 80/20 batting remains the more appropriate choice.
- What stitch spacing is required?
- Check the current Hobbs Tuscany Cotton Wool specifications for recommended stitch spacing.
- Does the cotton-wool blend shrink?
- Yes — the cotton content will shrink slightly on first washing. Follow care instructions for wool/cotton blend fabric care.
- Is this available in a roll format?
- Check the Linda’s listing for available formats. The production roll provides better economy for high-volume use.
