I hope y'all laughed with me! Jeannie
Actually, a very cute idea. I gather you are talking about the long roll by the yard batting, rather than packaged batts? If I were going to hide one, I would just make a flat piece of fabric, sides hemmed, with eyelet or trim to match your guest room deco on the ends, and roll the batting in it. Just place it on the bed, or if you have frequent guests and it gets moved a lot, bast it in with 4-5 stitches per foot. Easier than stuffing a batting into a long open pillow case, no? :thumbup: :-D
If your primary purpose is to store batting, what about making a flat piece and put velcro on the edges you want to close? One heck of a lot faster than trying to "stuff" batting in a long tube. And a bit faster than a few stitches along the edge.
