Skip the pins and messy spray adhesives! Tender Touch Fusible Cotton Batting features a unique, water-activated fusible web that allows you to easily create a perfectly smooth quilt sandwich.

Ideal for quilt-as-you-go projects, wall hangings, bag making, and domestic machine quilting, this batting is incredibly forgiving—it can be lightly misted, repositioned, and re-fused up to 20 times until your project is flawlessly aligned.
Why You’ll Love It:
-
No Pinning or Spraying Required: Eliminates the need for traditional basting, saving you time and keeping your workspace free of sticky chemical overspray.
-
Repositionable up to 20 Times: The water-activated adhesive layer doesn't lock in permanently right away; lightly re-mist to shift, adjust, and re-fuse wrinkles out.
-
Pure & Chemical-Free Fibers: Crafted from clean, natural organic cotton fibers with no harsh chemical bleaching, ensuring a safe and gentle touch.
-
Perfect for Quilt-As-You-Go: The low-loft design keeps layers incredibly flat and easy to manage under domestic sewing machine feet or longarms.
-
Generous Stitch Distance: Built with a sturdy protective scrim that gives you the freedom to machine or hand quilt up to 8 inches apart.
How to Use & Care Instructions:
-
To Fuse: Lay your quilt backing, batting, and quilt top flat. Lightly mist the batting with water, then press evenly with a hot iron to activate the fusible web.
-
Washing Finished Projects: Hand wash the completed quilt in warm water using a mild detergent to completely dissolve and flush away the temporary fusible fibers. Soak for 15 minutes, gently squeeze out excess water by rolling the quilt in a dry towel, and lay flat to dry.
