Description
Hemline High Loft Soft Wadding Sew In 100% Polyester 90cm Wide
Add soft, puffy dimension and lightweight warmth to quilting, sewing and creative projects with Hemline High Loft Soft Wadding.
Made from 100% polyester, this 92gsm sew in wadding is lightweight, breathable and very soft, while its high loft creates a fuller, puffier finish without relying on a fusible adhesive.
At 90cm wide, it is ideal for quilts, padded sewing projects, light clothing and other projects where you want soft loft and thermal insulation rather than firm structural support.
Why Choose High Loft Soft Wadding?
High loft refers to the thickness and puffiness of the wadding rather than simply its weight. Although this wadding is only 92gsm, Hemline describes it as very puffy, lightweight and soft, making it a great choice when you want noticeable padded dimension while keeping the finished project light and comfortable.
Because it is sew in rather than fusible, there is no adhesive layer to bond to your fabric. This makes it suitable for projects and fabrics where you prefer to secure the layers by stitching.
Perfect for Quilting, Sewing & Creative Projects
Hemline recommends this high loft wadding for duvets, quilts and tapestries as well as light clothing such as jackets and coats. It is suitable for all fabrics and offers good thermal insulation while remaining breathable and easy to work with.
For bag making, its soft high loft can be useful when you want a deliberately puffy, softly padded effect rather than the firmer stand-up structure provided by bag foam or structural interfacing.

How to Use
Hemline recommends tacking the wadding to the reverse of your fabric and then adding your backing fabric. Sew the layers together by hand or machine, spacing the stitching approximately 15–20cm apart.
Always test the wadding on a scrap of your project’s fabric first. For the full manufacturer’s technical information and care details, click the Instructions tab on this product page.
Helpful Tip from Chris
When choosing wadding, think about the finished effect you want as well as the GSM. A lightweight wadding can still have plenty of loft and puffiness, while a heavier product may create a flatter or firmer finish.
When sewing quilting weight fabric with wadding, I generally start with a stitch length of around 3 and a size 90/14 needle, such as the Schmetz Microtex Sewing Machine Needles Size 90 / 14. My favourite thread for this type of sewing is Threadsation™ Bag Makers Sewing Thread.
Your ideal needle and stitch length can vary depending on your fabric, thread and number of layers, so a quick test sample is always worthwhile.
