Batting is too short
 

Hi! I have a quick question about twin size batting. My twin size quilt that I am just starting on says the finished size is 69x95. I was looking online for batting and I noticed that the twin size batting is 72x90. What's a person to do?
Thanks for your help!

You can order a bigger batting and have some left over. Another suggestion is to buy the batting by the yard like at Joann's and another idea is to stitch on a piece of batting to make the piece you have long enough.

Is there any special trick to sewing batting together? I might have enough to piece it. Thanks for the quick reply.

I just loosly baste the section on with needle and thread. Be sure and pull the edges together

I overlap the ends of each piece and then cut a straight line thru both and then sew together with a large zig zag stitch. Do not overlap when sewing but butt the ends together being careful not to stretch either piece.

You can buy a tape to iron on the batting and piece it together. Overlap the pieces and rotary cut across the overlapped edges. Then use the tape to join the straight edges.

all good advice. I have done all the ways.

I zig zag pieces together all the time.

I do like Holice and just add a piece at the bottom. I have lots of batting that I have saved from smaller than full size. I have pieced pieces of batting together to make it big enough for a full size quilt. Made several of them like that.

I zig zag them also-just to hold them together
