I had an idea once, that if I could find enough polyester...I thought I would make some lap quilts or robes for the elderly in assisted living facilities. They would hold in the body heat and be light weight, and very durable for the way things get washed in a facility, or if there are family members doing laundry it would stand up to frequent washing and drying.
One design idea I had was to make squares-two squares sewn together leaving an opening, turn inside out, stuff, stitch closed. And sew the squares together like a biscuit quilt. You could even use left over batting to stuff-even thin strips clipped off that are too narrow or small for anything else could be used to stuff.
