  2. What are The Features of Fabric Manufacturer From Melbourne? Whether you intend to do the quilting yourself or send it out for long-arm quilting, you'll need to pick a suitable batting for your quilt by the time you've finished your first quilt top. If you're new to patchwork, you could be surprised when you go to buy your batting for the first time: "Wow, they're so THIN!" And there are so many different kinds – they all look the same.” www.mstexaustralia.com

  3. What are the characteristics of quilt batting in Australia? • Bearding (also known as "migration"). As the fibers detach and begin to work their way through the fabric's weave, escaping the quilt and leaving a beard-like look on the quilt's surface. This is particularly noticeable when light-colored batting is used within a dark-colored quilt. To stop bearding, use high-quality batting from reputable brands. • Adaptability. This refers to the bat's ability to return to its original form after being unfolded, as well as how well it avoids creasing. This is where wool fiber comes in handy. • Cotton battings retain moisture and are thus cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Wool battings are lightweight and provide warmth. www.mstexaustralia.com

  4. 100% Cotton Batting Using cotton has many benefits. In quilting, cotton batting does not slide around as much. Some cotton battings are bonded, a technique used by manufacturers to tie the fibres together so that they do not move or beard the fibres. Cotton breathes and is very flexible- for traditional and heirloom quilting, it is preferred as it softens with age. If the batting involves scrims or other binders, consider washing before quilting to avoid any sort of shrinkage. Low loft batting is called cotton and is heavier than polyester. Natural, black and bleached cotton is available. www.mstexaustralia.com

  5. Wrap Up Quilt batting from Australia is usually sold by the meter, off a roll. Pre-cut bed size portions are also available. Unlike doonas and mats, batting sizes are not normal, and exact measurements are impossible to achieve. Since patchwork quilts are typically larger than a mattress or a bed, people also want some overhang when the quilt is finished. Most importantly, you should still leave some extra fabric for trimming after quilting. To learn more you can visit M&S Textile Australia for more details. www.mstexaustralia.com
