nTruly Green Batting—This Earth-Friendly Batting is made 100% from Recycled Plastic Bottles!
n
nDream Green is a soft, cozy batting made 100% from recycled plastic bottles! It meets our highest standards of quality, function, and performance. Your needles will glide through this unique eco-friendly batting. The finished quilt may be machine-washed and dried with little to no shrinkage. Dream Green is wrinkle-resistant.
n
nEach pound of Dream Green Batting keeps ten plastic bottles out of our landfills. Plastic bottles are cut into chips, washed, melted and extruded into fine polyester fibers. These recycled fibers are indistinguishable from “virgin” polyester fibers yet are made without depleting our precious natural resources. To avoid additional processing, we have kept the soft “natural” green bottle color, but you can rest assured that Dream Green is colorfast and compatible with all your finest quilts and projects.
n
nDream Green has been carded, cross-lapped and needle-punched for uniformity, strength, and resiliency. There is no scrim or resins, yet you can stitch up to 12” apart! Utilizing eco-efficient recycling, Quilters Dream has developed a wonderful quilt batting that truly accomplishes the meaning of “green.”

nGREEN FACTS: Studies show that the energy saved by recycling a single plastic bottle – compared to producing a new one from scratch – is enough to power a single 60-watt bulb for six hours. The amount of petroleum saved annually by using post-consumer bottles instead of virgin materials in manufacturing is enough to supply power to a city the size of Atlanta for an entire year! It is reported that the process of recycling plastic bottles results in a 66% reduction in energy consumption, a nearly 90% reduction in water usage, and a reduction of carbon dioxide by 2.5 times.
