I have pieces from several different sources that I have difficulty really telling the differences so I generally don't piece them together. My "duh" moment came and now I label each piece of batting and put all like pieces in a plastic bag.

Hi All,
pI was reading another quilters blog when I stumbled on this very question. She states that she sews even the "smallest pieces of batting" together..... Uses them in small to medium projects. She them made me laugh by sharing her name for this pieced batting..... She calls it Frankenbatting (after Frankenstein). How funny! I have been saving my pieces ever since.
hugs

I buy batting by the roll and piece it when necessary. When I've accumulated a lot of batting scraps, I sometimes piece them all together for a quilt. Batting is too expensive to waste. I have tried whip-stitching (too much work) and using tape, but I've found that zigzagging the pieces together works best for me.
