Quilting goes Green with Quilter’s Dream Batting

The quilting world is fast entering the “green” movement with eco friendly fabrics and fibers.  This latest creation is offered by Quilter’s Dream Batting.  Dream Green is a soft and cozy batting made 100% from recycled plastic pop bottles.  No only is this eco friendly, but it feels wonderful to the touch, your needles easily glide through and it can be machine washed with little or no shrinkage.

Quilter’s Dream Green batting keeps 10 pounds of plastic bottles out of the landfill with every pound of batting created.  If you are used to the usual polyester batting, you’ll find that these recycled fibers are indistinguishable from the “virgin” polyester fibers, yet they are made without depleting our natural resources.

Fun Green Fact:  Energy saved from recycling a single plastic bottle, as compared to creating a new one, will power a single 60 watt bulb for 6 hours!

The batting is available in all sizes and you’ll even learn the amount of bottles you saved from the landfill with the size of your choice!
