Item Description:
Create soft, beautiful results in light-colored quilts with Tuscany Bleached Cotton Batting from Hobbs. Designed especially for white and very light quilt tops, this 100% bleached cotton batting offers a clean, even appearance that helps prevent shadowing through pale fabrics.
Made from long-staple virgin cotton fibers, Tuscany Bleached Cotton has a soft hand and low loft, making it easy to quilt by hand or machine. With no scrim or binders, this needle-punched batting is designed to resist bunching and shifting while still allowing your finished quilt to develop that gently crinkled, antique-style texture after washing.
This queen-size batting is ideal for quilt makers who want a natural cotton feel, soft drape, and a clean white foundation for lighter projects. |

Frequently Asked Questions:
Why choose bleached cotton batting?
Bleached cotton batting is ideal for white, cream, pastel, and very light quilt tops because it helps prevent shadowing and keeps lighter fabrics looking clean and bright.
Should this batting be prewashed?
Prewashing is not recommended. Use the batting straight from the package, then wash the finished quilt after quilting.
Will this batting shrink?
Yes. You can expect approximately 3–5% shrinkage, which helps create a soft, antique-style puckering after the quilt is washed.
