QUILTERS DREAM 80/20
BATTING
Quilters Dream 80/20 is our newest Dream Batting, which debuted at
Spring Quilt Market 2016. It is made
with 80% high grade long staple USA cotton fiber blended with 20% fine denier
poly microfiber for a soft, silky batting that drapes beautifully and breathes well. The long staple cotton fiber reduces
shrinkage and adds stability so that the stitches can be up to 8” apart. The poly microfibers add a loft and
resistance to creases/wrinkles.
There
are no scrims, glues, or other binders to resist the needle, so this fine
batting can be hand or machine quilted with ease. It is available in natural, white, and our
exclusive “Dream Pink!”
Dream Pink is an 80/20 Dream Batting made with pink poly
microfibers to support breast cancer.
Quilters Dream Batting donates 10% of the wholesale sale of Dream Pink
to late stage metastatic breast cancer research. Our pink poly microfibers are extruded pink
so the color will not run or bleed, and the pink fibers lends a fabulous blush
pink coloring to batting.
There are no scrims, glues, or other binders to resist the needle, so this fine batting can be hand or machine quilted with ease. It is available in natural, white, and our exclusive “Dream Pink!”

(1-3%) for the slightly puckered look
