Premium 80/20 Quilt Batting for Everyday Quilting
96" × 30 yards • 80% cotton / 20% polyester • Made in the USA • FREE shipping • Ships protected in a box
ThreadWorks Soft & Elegant is our go-to everyday batting for quilters who want exceptional softness, dependable structure, and remarkably consistent batting from edge to edge. We selected it to be the roll you can keep beside the longarm, reach for project after project, and confidently recommend when someone asks for a versatile premium 80/20.
Batting disappears inside the finished quilt, but its consistency affects the entire quilting experience. Soft & Elegant gives you an even foundation without the frustrating obvious high and low areas that can make lesser batting unpredictable. The cotton-rich blend keeps the familiar character of cotton while polyester contributes resilience and body.

Our Everyday ThreadWorks Batting
If you want one ThreadWorks batting that can cover a broad range of quilting, start here. Soft & Elegant works beautifully for bed quilts, throws, lap quilts, customer quilts, edge-to-edge work, domestic-machine quilting, and hand quilting. For a professional longarmer, its biggest advantage is repeatability: keep one known batting in the studio and know what you are putting inside the next customer quilt.
Why a 96" × 30-Yard Roll?
The 96-inch width is our most versatile roll size for everyday work. Thirty full yards means less time buying individual packaged batts and more time quilting. Measure the length required for the project, cut what you need, and keep the same consistent batting ready for the next quilt.

Made in the USA & Boxed for Protection
ThreadWorks Soft & Elegant is made in the USA. Every ThreadWorks batting roll also ships FREE inside a protective box. Batting is a large, soft product, and we do not want a premium roll traveling loose and exposed through the carrier network. The box helps protect it during handling so it arrives ready for your quilting space.
Care & Shrinkage
The supplied care information recommends hand pre-washing before use if desired. Use cool water with mild detergent, soak approximately 15 minutes, gently remove excess moisture by rolling the batting in a dry towel, and dry naturally while laid flat. Do not machine wash or machine dry loose batting before quilting. Supplied product information states shrinkage of less than 5%.
