Finally, a perfect batting for our Ever-Changing climate...
Warm in winter & Breezy in summer
So your handmade quilt gets loved all year round!

Imagine if you made the softest quilt for your loved one from scratch....

Knowing that your family and loved ones stay breezy in summer AND warm in winter - so they can enjoying YOUR quilt all year round!

By Now, You've made a few quilts. And you realise......

Quality Quilt Batting doesn't come cheap.
Buying by the Meter Adds Up. FAST.

But you still have So. Many. Quilts to make...


I know. I feel the same.

Having worked for a decade or so behind the scene in the clothing industry, I was formally trained as a Fashion Designer - and later spent 10 years teaching others the joy of sewing & patchwork quilting. I'm constantly inspired by new fabric - that means I have more than one project on the go, ALL the time.

So I know that buying batting by the meter end up costing a fortune.

There has to be a better way... right?

There is no doubt you should Never Skim on Quality, because YOUR handmade quilts have taken you hours, day, months - even YEARS - to complete. That's Why...

Compromising Quality for the sake of Saving... Just Doesn't Make Sense.




What's the solution, then?

The Seasoned Quilter's Secret of SAVING is simple - Buy Batting by the Whole Roll .

And that's why they go with 100% Wool (122 gsm) by Sew Easy.

How thick is this 100% wool batting? 

Roughly 4 to 5 mm... by my ruler :-)

Sew Easy describes it as "Low to Medium Loft" - a little bit lighter in weight compare to 100% Cosy Cotton, though the thickness or "loft height" is a fraction more than cotton.

In general, Wool battings tend to be puffier and very resilient, but can be tricky to quilt because it is also quite bouncy!

Unlike the other wool battings, the Sew Easy 100% Wool Batting is softer, and behaves more like wool felt or wool flannel (have a look at the close-up photo below) - it is NOT as thick and fluffy as the old high-loft polyester batting, and doesn't have the "hard" scrim like other wool battings - that means it is easier to quilt - even by hand!

What's so good about using 100% wool batting?

Sew Easy Wool Batting (sometimes known as Wadding) was created based on demand from Australia's quilters.

• Resilient and Give Great Stitch Definition - shows off your quilting!
  
• Warm even when wet - comfortable for everyday use
  
• Minimal Shrinkage - no needs to pre-shrink!
  
• Resists folds and creases - so your quilt stays smooth and wrinkle-free
  
• Natually Flame Resistant - nice and safe
  

It has a warmer hand feel, with a slightly higher loft than 100% bamboo, with the warmth and breathability of wool. If you love the loft of polyester and the softness of cotton, you'd love this wool batting - because it gives you the best of both worlds!

What exactly is in this batting?

Containing only natural wool fibres - held together securely by a fine scrim - this batting will keep you and your family comfortable in any area too warm for heavy, lofty wool doona and cool enough to need a little warmth.

Wool breathes, it traps air and also absorbs moistures. This means you stay warm without being sweaty, and comfortable even in damp climates.

How cool or warm is this batting, compares to polyester or polyester blends?

Wool is warmer than cotton but cooler than polyester in summer. And bamboo is the coolest of them all.

Polyester does not breath - while it seems warm all year round it only feels that way because it traps your body heat and moisture without air circulation (think polyester in clothing).

Natural fibres breath, so air can circulate and keep our skin in comfortable condition through out the night so your family can sleep better. The little air pockets traped in the batting is what keeps us warm without feeling clammy. Nice!

Does this batting shrink?

When it comes to shrinkage, ALL needle-punched waddings / battings (which covers just about every brand you can buy) have it, no matter what type of natural fibre (i.e. cotton, bamboo, wool, or any mixture from these).

Having said that - this particular wool batting has minimal shrinkage, which makes it more suited to modern quilt designs that doesn't require the antique-like wrinkled effect like cotton or bamboo.

How is this 100% wool batting made?

The proper term is "needle-punched".

It means loose wool & cotton fibres have been put through a machine that has millions of needles (but no thread), and the loose fibres are being "punched" into whole pieces before being rolled into huge rolls.

Think of it like how they make felt - there is no weaving involved and that's why the fibres can still move (and go to pieces if washed by itself before encasing between fabrics).....

This batting contains scrim. What is "scrim"?

Scrim is a thin, non-woven base layer that provides structure for loose fibre to cling on to, when the batting in being made - minimal but essential. ALL needle-punched waddings / battings contains scrim, though in varying weight and drape.

Unlike some other battings in the market - which can feel like there's some interfacing embedded within the batting - Sew Easy batting uses a super-fine scrim that is barely detactable, and you can  enjoy the natural drape and softness from the natural fibre - which also means it's easy to quilt, even by hand!

I heard that "bearding" can a problem with wool batting. What's "bearding"?

Ah, Bearding, the unsightly problem of the fibres from the batting working their way through the surface of quilt. This can be a common problem with poor quality wool or polyester battings.

Sew Easy takes care of ths by using only the best quality wool fibres (which we have plenty of in Australia!), running their needle punch machine at just the right speed, and apply the right finishing.

What you get is a soft and even finish, that bearding is no longer an issue.

So you don't have to worry about it. Hooray!!

Can I pre-wash the wool batting?

No. There is no need anyway - because it has minimal to no shrinkage.

Only wash your quilt when it is ALL finished, so the fibres in the batting are encased inside your fabric and not exposed - this way you won't end up with fluffy pieces everywhere!




I know that you're a savvy quilter
who cares about more than just sewing.

Now, Let's have a closer look that the fibres.....




 
Wool


Wool makes an ideal bedding material because....

• it provides lightness and insulation against cold. It stays comfortable all year round.
• wool transfers moisture away from your skin, helping maintain an even body temperature throughout the night - so you get a deeper and more restful sleep!
• it is hypoallergenic and has natural resistance to mould, mildew and dustmites which may initiate allergic reactions. 
• wool is flame-resistant and difficult to ignite. It won’t melt like polyester, it’s slow burning, and it tends to self-extinguish making it a safer choice for fabrics in the home, use in the hospitality industry, and use as hospital bedding.
• wool fibres are easy-care and long-lasting so your quilt will be too!

Wool is a smart choice for sustainability because it has almost NO carbon footprint.

It is a renewable resource because it is the clippings of sheep and lamb fleece. Wool processing does not require harsh chemicals - just warm soapy water. Products made of wool or wool blend can last for decades and when their use is over the wool is biodegradable.

Most importantly: we Aussies produced a lot of it (yay to our farmers)!

Why buy wool?

Because you want to be responsible for the carbon footprint of your hobby.

Wool is a renewable resource - the harvesting of wool do no harm to the sheep. And they can regrow for more harvests.

Being natural fibres, wool is biodegradable - that means when they have eventually served their use in your quilt (which will take many years, even generations), they will break down easily - instead of clogging up landfill like man-made or petrolieum-based materials such as polyester.

Wool is a versatile materials. Turning it into fibres and textile products produce very little waste, and a lot of by-products are created during the process so they are ecomonical too!

And by getting the roll - instead of by the meter - you've just SAVED a lot of excess packaging, as well as money for more fabric. Yay!
