Batting by the Yard Hobbs Heirloom Black 80/20 108" Wide

Designed for quilts made with black or dark-colored fabrics, this Hobbs Heirloom Black Batting helps keep colors looking true while reducing the chance of light fiber lint showing on the quilt top. The 80/20 cotton blend is a practical choice for both hand and machine quilting, and the 108-inch width makes it a versatile option for larger projects or yardage-based cutting.

Order by the yard: add 1 unit for each yard needed. This batting is color-fast and dyed for use with dark fabrics, with a low-loft feel that can be adjusted slightly by quilting density. It is cut by the yard for flexible project planning.
