 ‘Batting: What’s Inside Matters’

Presented by Stephanie Hackney

Director of Sales & Marketing, Craft & Retail

Hobbs Bonded Fibers

This lecture offers quilters and other creatives a chance to learn all about fibers and batting.

This lecture covers:

- the questions we ask quilters to assist them in narrowing down the many batting choices to what’s ‘best’ for achieving the results they desire;

- the various fiber types, and pros and (potential) cons of each type;

- what we recommend for specific use cases (modern quilts, charity quilts, art quilts, wall hangings, runners, throws, etc.);

- proper use and care of battings and quilts;

- tips and tricks for best results

- bearding: how to prevent it, and how to fix it if it happens 

- and, a bit of fun!

The lecture is 1.5 hours in length, we will hold all questions until the end, and will have a Q&A session at the end.
