It’s a polyester batting commonly used to add softness, loft, and smooth edges in upholstery, quilting, and craft projects. On this page you’ll find upholstery‑grade, bonded options in widths like 24", 36", and 48", sold by the yard. In upholstery, it’s wrapped around foam to round corners, reduce friction with the cover fabric, and improve comfort. In quilts, it provides a puffy layer without much weight.

• Typical uses: cushion wrap, headboards, ottomans, pillows, quilting layers, costumes.
• “Bonded” construction helps fibers stay together and reduces shifting.
• It cuts easily; secure it using methods appropriate to your project and materials.

Polyester batting is versatile, but there are a few trade‑offs to keep in mind:

• Breathability: Natural fibers can feel more breathable, while synthetics may retain more warmth.
• Heat sensitivity: High ironing temperatures can compress or affect fibers; check care guidance and use lower heat.
• Bulk: Higher loft improves cushion rounding but can add thickness at seams.
• Movement: Like most batting, it benefits from quilting, tacking, or other securing methods to limit shifting.
• Feel preferences: If you want a flatter, drapier quilt, a low‑loft or cotton option may suit better.

Review each item’s width, loft, and care notes to match your project needs.

Warmth depends on fiber, loft, and how densely you quilt. Here you’ll typically see two choices:

• Polyester (higher loft options): Traps more air for a puffier, cozier feel at a similar weight.
• Cotton (flatter profile): Breathable and traditional, with a lower‑profile look and feel.

If extra coziness is the goal, many quilters consider higher‑loft polyester or layering batting, but results vary by pattern, climate, and quilting density. Check product details for loft (e.g., 1/2") and width to plan coverage or layers. Ordering a small amount to test the hand and warmth before starting a large quilt can be a helpful step.

The generic name is polyester batting. You’ll also see related terms that describe how it’s used:

• Upholstery batting or cushion wrap (for wrapping foam padding)
• Quilt batting or wadding (for sewing and quilting)
• Polyester fiberfill sheets (flat sheets rather than loose fill)

These terms refer to similar polyester fiber materials formed into sheets for wrapping, lining, or layering. Use filters for batting type, width, and yardage to find the format that fits your project.

Here’s a simple way to estimate:

1. Measure each cushion: length, width, and thickness.
2. Add wrap allowance: add 1–2 inches per side so the batting overlaps on the back.
3. Choose a width: pick 24", 36", or 48" to cover the cushion in one pass when possible.
4. Calculate yardage: total the cut lengths for all cushions and add extra (about 10–15%) for trimming, corners, and compression.

Bonded upholstery‑grade batting helps smooth edges and reduce friction with the cover fabric. You can sort options by width and yardage here, then choose delivery or store pickup at checkout.
