Frequently Asked Questions
- Why would I use a colored batting instead of white or natural?
- Colored batting affects the appearance of the finished quilt, especially with open-weave, loosely woven, or sheer fabrics where the batting shows through. Green batting can add depth and richness to nature, landscape, or holiday quilts in ways that white batting cannot.
- Does green batting show through standard quilting cotton?
- On tightly woven quilting cotton with proper tension, the batting color typically does not show through the fabric. However, on lighter-weight, looser, or lighter-colored cottons, some color from the batting may be visible — test before committing.
- Is Select loft the right choice for art quilts?
- Select’s medium loft provides enough body for art quilts to hang well and hold their shape, while remaining easy to needle for intricate quilting designs. It’s a versatile choice for most art quilt applications.
- What quilting thread colors pair well with green batting on an art quilt?
- Matching green thread creates a tonal effect; contrast with gold, rust, or brown thread creates definition; white or cream thread creates high contrast that emphasizes the quilting design over the batting color.
- Is this batting available in other colors?
- Yes — Quilters Dream Select is available in multiple colors including black, white, and natural. Check the full batting section at Linda’s Electric Quilters for all color and size options.
