Description

Hobbs Heirloom® Organic cotton batting with scrim binder is needle punched cotton batting with a thin polypropylene binder. They use the same pure organic cotton which is grown without pesticides or other chemicals as they do in all their organic cotton products, thus assuring the quilter that the batting is free of all chemicals which could cause an allergic reaction. The scrim binder provides additional strength which enables the product to be quilted up to 8-10 inches apart, or can be used as the outside layer for craft projects. This batting is primarily for machine quilters and crafts.

What does Needle Punched mean?

This type of batting is carded or garnetted then layered to form a web. The web is then passed through needling equipment that mechanically entangles the web by using thousands of needles that lock the fiber together. This type of product works to give strength to a product while allowing for a soft hand and thinner profile vs. a high loft type product. Needle punched wool or polyester tend to migrate, but will not bunch or shift like plain garnetted or carded products. Needle punched products can be thermal bonded or resin bonded.

What is scrim?

Scrim is a thin stabilizer that is needle punched into the batting to provide strength and prevent stretching
