The Tuscany Collection
The Ultimate Quilt Batting

New Tuscany Batting available wholesale to businesses at 
The Quilting Connection!

          The new Tuscany Collection of premium quilt battings includes a brand new SILK batting, wool, polyester, bleached cotton and unbleached cotton.  All Tuscany bagged batting is flat folded which means fewer wrinkles and less compression.  This new collection made quite an impression at Quilt Market! 

Tuscany Silk quilt batting is made from a very fine, pure imported silk.  It is then carded and resin bonded to help retard bearding (fiber migration) allowing the batting to be handled like a blanket.  It can be quilted up to 4" apart, hand washed in tepid water and laid out flat to dry.  It will likely shrink approximately 5%.  Silk being a natural fiber, the batting will breathe and wil quilt magnificently by hand or machine!

Tuscany Wool batting is made with the very best super-wash wool which eliminates most or all of the shrinkage.  It is then carded and resin bonded to help retard bearding.  Tuscany wool batting provides superb insulation and the fiber breathes allowing excess heat to dispense away from the body.  it can be quilted up to 4" apart and is hand washable in tepid water, laying out flat to dry.  Tuscany wool hand quilts like a dream and is wonderful for machine quilters too!

Tuscany Polyester is made with the finest siliconized, very small denier polyester and is then resin bonded to resist bearding.  A unique technique is used during production that helps seal the outside and further prevents beardings.  It is completely washable and my be quilted up to 4" apart.  It should not shrink.

Tuscany Bleached Cotton is made with fine 100% USA cotton.  It's carded and specially needle-punched to prevent bunching or shifting and is completely washable.  It will shrink 3-5% like all needle-punched 100% cotton batting.  (You may experience less shrinkage if you wash finished quilt in cold water and lay it flat to dry.)  It can be quilted up to 4" apart.  Bleached cotton should be used with light or white fabrics to eliminate the shading of natural or dark colored battings.

Tuscany Unbleached Cotton starts with fine 100% USA cotton, is carded and specially needle-punched to prevent bunching and shifting.  It is completely washable and will shrink 3-5% like all cotton batting.  (You may experience less shrinkage if you wash finished quilt in cold water and lay it flat to dry.)  It can be quilted up to 4" apart and should be used primarily with medium or dark colored fabrics.

    The Quick Zip System is offered in different sizes to accommodate the many different size frames on the market today.  To figure out what size you need simply measure the length of your canvas on one of the roller bars and then choose a size that is closest to that number.  If your canvas length is not close to one of the standard sizes we can customize the zippers which means they are cut to the exact length of your canvas.

The PatternGrid with Starry Night  Under it.
The PatternGrid and PatternGrid Jr are designed for pattern quilting.  The Grid is in 1/4" increments that are dotted lines and 1" solid line increments.  This is an essential tool when squaring up patterns.  The PatternGrids can be used to place parts of a pattern the same distance away from the edges of your quilts.  For example in the Starry Night Pattern above you will be able to count the 1" increments of the Grid to the edge of your quilt to be sure you have a moon and a star the same distance away from each edge of your quilt top.  This works great with any pattern.  The PatternGrid also ensures you will have that same element of the pattern (a star ...etc.) all the way down the borders of your quilt.  The PatternGrid can also be used to design your own patterns.  By using the grid lines you will be able to space motifs evenly across the quilt.  If you have any quesitons about The PatternGrid please feel free to contact us.  262-723-6775
