Quilt Batting Information

 

I prefer to use and stock Brewer Premium 50/50 Bamboo/Cotton Blend Batting.   It is ideal for Longarm Quilting because of the the way it sticks to the Quilt Top and Bottom. This helps to keep it smooth and from getting lumpy or thinning as you straighten it out through the quilting process.  It is also breathable, cool in the summer and warm in the winter. See below for more information.  

If you prefer, you may supply your own batting. in this case, you will have to send it to me with your Top & Backing.

If you provide the Batting it must be Quality Quilting Batting.  

Your Batting must be 12″ larger than your Quilt Top (6″ each side all the way around), in other words the same size as your Backing.  I’m sorry but I do not accept Batting that has been pieced. 

I will quilt 2 layers at most of Batting regardless of who provides the Batting. 

If you purchase the Batting from me the Batting Fee is calculated based on the Total Backing square inches required for your quilt and multiplying it by 0.0046.  If you choose an extra layer of batting I just double this fee.

Below is the manufacturer’s information for the Brewer Premium 50/50 Bamboo/Cotton Blend Batting that I prefer.

Premium 50/50 Bamboo Cotton Blend with scrim is an eco-friendly batting with anti-bacterial properties. Made with long staple cotton and the softest bamboo fiber. No chemicals or bleach added. Ideal for machine or hand quilt up to 8″ apart. We recommend pre washing by hand prior to use. Shrinkage less that 5%. If prewashing is not desired, wash your quilt once that its finished, this will give you the perfect look.
