100 percent cotton. This type of batting is easy to work with and easy to launder. When the finished quilt is washed, cotton batting creates a crinkly, vintage look.

100 percent polyester. This batting is preferred by some hand quilters because of the ease of needling. Our polyester batting has been treated to prevent bearding. Polyester batting is a bit warmer than cotton batting.

Poly-cotton blend. Super smooth to the touch, poly-cotton blended batting is quite popular with machine quilters. It’s considered to combine the best parts of both cotton and polyester batting in one package. Quilts with poly-cotton batting tend to have a slightly thicker look than those with 100 percent cotton and a smoother appearance as well, even after washing.

Wool. Cozy-warm and easy to hand quilt, wool batting is popular with hand quilters. Wool has an airy loft that creates highly defined quilting stitches, and it’s the warmest type of quilt batting available.
