Question 2 questions: How do you store your batting? & on batting sizes.

I have been quilting for about a year, making mostly lap quilts. I am beginning to collect quite a few batting scraps of various sizes that I plan to sew together to re-use.

I'm beginning to feel swamped in batting. They are taking up a LOT of my room in my storage closet. Any ideas on how to corral all of that? I can hardly get in there anymore.

My second question is: Since I make mostly lap quilts, I really don't know what size to by in batting.

There seems to be no batting size for the varying lap-quilt sizes. I'm only finding crib-size, standard/queen, king.

So I have to but 2 crib sizes together, or cut up the others...giving me lots of odds and ends of batting.

Anyone know where I can buy just lap-quilt sizes..or anything close to them? The crib is usually around 46 inches wide and most of mine are 48, 51, 53, 56, etc. in widths.

Thanks in advance.
