Deb34285 Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 Hi All, I have a question as to what brand of wool batting do you love best and where do you usually order it if buying by the roll?? Thanks! Deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gator Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 I'm partial to Quilter's Dream batting. I love wool, it's my favorite to use. QD wool is great the needle goes through it like a hot knife in butter. I get the QD Wool Select, do not get request it's for hand quilting. I have a business license so I get it from the distributor in VA Beach. I've seen it in a lot of quilt shops too. If you have a business license they will send you samples of their batting and a price listing. Customer service is top notch too. Just google Quilters Dream Batting to find it.

BethDurand Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 I love Hobbs Tuscany. I get it from EE Schenk here in Portland. I used it in a quilt for my mom for Christmas. Got an email from her several weeks later with a subject line of "Rat!" Seems that she is so in love with her cozy wool quilt that she doesn't want to get up in the morning and has taken to sleeping until 10am (She's retired) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fallenfar Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 I like Hobbs Wool on a roll from Linda's Electric Quilters. http://www.longarmsupplies.net/hobbsheirloomwashablewoolbatt.aspx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primitive1 Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 I'm with Connie on the Quilter's Dream....never had a bad package and it quilts up beautifully...I would do all my quilting with it if I could and my customers would agree...

dbams Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 I have used Quilters Dream wool batting in the package and really like it. Has anyone noticed a difference between the QD in packages versus on a roll? I found an earlier post about a place called Quilternatives that has really good pricing for QD wool on a roll, but I know some companies (Hobbs, for example) seem to have different levels of quality for packages and rolls.

Sheagatzi Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 I just used/purchased hobbs heirloom on the roll and it has been beautiful to work with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimerickson Posted February 11, 2016 Report Share Posted February 11, 2016 All (well maybe not the first one I quilted) have been Hobbs off the roll (the first would have been Hobbs too, just out of a package). I don't think there was any difference in quality/uniformity between the pack and the roll. I really like the stuff. Easier to work with than cotton.
