Hobbs Tuscany 100% Wool Batting is a favourite choice for both hand and machine quilters, and its fast becoming the number-one choice for show quilts (often paired with a second batting such as Hobbs Tuscany Cotton/Wool Batting).

The loft and resilience inherent to the wool fibres in Hobbs Tuscany 100% Wool Batting assist in emphasizing the quilterÕs piecing and stitching and, because the wool has no ÔmemoryÕ for creases, submitted show quilts will look and hang beautifully even after being folded during transit, judging, and pre- and post-show storage.

Hobbs Tuscany 100% Wool Batting is made with the very finest super washed wool that is carded and bonded to retard bearding and this super washing process successfully smooths the scales on wool fibres, making the wool pleasant to the touch and less likely to shrink.

Hobbs Tuscany 100% Wool Batting is ideal for use in all climates as the natural wool fibre breathes, allowing excess heat to disperse away from the body. It will certainly keep you warm, but itÕs great for use in quilts made for use in hot, places like Texas, where we produce this batting!

We suggest washing items made with Hobbs Tuscany 100% Wool Batting by hand, or by machine using a delicate cycle and cool water, with no heavy agitation or spinning. Be especially cautious with front loading washers as the intense spin cycle on these machines can be very hard on quilts. To dry items made with Hobbs Tuscany 100% Wool Batting, you may place the quilt in a cool dryer for 5-10 minutes to start the drying process, but we recommend you then air dry the quilt.

***NEVER use high heat or steam with projects made with wool as it is very likely this will cause the wool to be felted, resulting in a dense, stiff batting that not only wonÕt drape well, but may also beard (bearding: the term used to describe batting poking through the fabric, generally in the stitch lines) ***
