M Fabrics Synthetic Batting
Top fabric (quilt top or outer fabric)
Backing fabric
Scissors or rotary cutter
Pins, clips, or basting spray
Sewing machine or hand needle
Step-by-Step: How to Use Synthetic Batting
Step 1: Measure and Cut
Measure your project size and cut the batting slightly larger (1–2 inches extra on all sides) than the top fabric.
Step 2: Layer the Materials
Create a quilt sandwich:
Bottom layer – backing fabric (wrong side up)
Middle layer – synthetic batting
Top layer – quilt top or main fabric (right side up)
Smooth out all layers to remove wrinkles.
Step 3: Secure the Layers
Use safety pins, fabric clips, or basting spray to hold all layers together evenly.This prevents shifting during stitching.
Step 4: Stitch the Layers
Quilt by machine or hand using straight lines, patterns, or free-motion stitching.
Keep stitches evenly spaced to maintain uniform thickness and warmth.
Step 5: Trim the Edges
After stitching, trim excess batting and fabric to match your final project size.
Step 6: Bind or Finish
Finish edges using binding tape or fabric strips for a clean, professional look.
Tips for Best Results
Use a walking foot for even stitching on thick layers.
Do not stretch the batting while sewing.
Choose appropriate stitch length for thicker padding.
Buy enough batting for the entire project to maintain consistent thickness.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Cutting batting too small
