Insul-Bright Insulating Thermal Lining 45″ x 1 Yard

Add effective thermal insulation to pot holders, oven mitts, casserole covers, lunch bags, and other temperature-sensitive sewing projects with Insul-Bright Insulating Thermal Lining. This needle-punched insulating material combines polyester fibers with a reflective metalized polyester film to help manage both hot and cold temperatures.

The polyester fibers help resist conductive heat transfer, while the reflective metalized film reflects radiant energyhot or coldback toward its source. This combination makes Insul-Bright a versatile thermal lining for practical home sewing, quilting, insulated accessories, and handmade gifts.

Insul-Bright is easy to sew through, breathable, and designed to withstand washing without breaking down. It does not shrink and, once quilted into a finished project, can be machine washed and dried.

For projects involving hot items, the manufacturer recommends using cotton batting with Insul-Bright to help absorb steam vapor. Insul-Bright itself is breathable, which means steam vapor can pass through the material. Adding cotton batting provides an absorbent layer for projects such as oven mitts, pot holders, casserole cozies, tea cozies, table runners, and placemats.

This package contains 1 yard of 45″-wide Insul-Bright, providing a convenient amount for a variety of insulated sewing and quilting projects.
