King-Size Quilt Starter Bundle – Hobbs 120" Batting Roll + White Glide Thread
The King-Size Quilt Starter Bundle — Hobbs 120" Batting Roll + White Glide Thread pairs Hobbs’s 120" wide production batting roll with a White Glide king spool, giving longarm studios that regularly quilt king-size quilts the two most essential supplies in one purchase. The 120" batting eliminates center seams in king-size quilt backings, and White Glide is the most versatile neutral thread color for any quilt.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Why choose 120" batting for king quilts?
- A standard queen-width batting (90–93") can be used for king quilts but requires seaming. At 120" wide, the king batting provides a single-piece cover for king and California king quilts without any seaming, saving time and ensuring consistent loft across the full quilt surface.
- How many king quilts does a 30-yard roll provide?
- A standard king quilt requires approximately 3.5 yards of batting with loading overhang. A 30-yard roll yields approximately 8 king quilts.
- Is the thread the same as the standard Longarm Starter Bundle?
- Yes — the White Glide king spool is identical in both bundles. The only difference is the batting width (120" for kings vs. 93" for queens).
- Can I use this batting for queen quilts?
- Yes — 120" batting works for queen quilts, providing extra loading overhang. It uses slightly more batting per quilt than a queen-width roll but is an acceptable choice if you quilt a mix of queen and king sizes.
- Does this bundle come with a bobbin recommendation?
- White Magna-Glide Delights or Classics pre-wound bobbins pair naturally with White Glide thread. Add the White Glide Thread + Bobbins Bundle or a separate bobbin jar alongside this order for a complete setup.
