Scraps For Pet Bed Stuffing-What Size
I know I can use fabric scraps for pet bed stuffing (I saw the video too). Since I have 6 toy dogs, including one 13 years old and one 5 year old who is totally blind from detached retinas and Glaucoma, I wash pet beds a lot. My no-sew fleece beds I made a few years ago have lost most of their loft and clump terribly when laundered.
I have some pretty much unused king flannel pillow cases and a ton of my DH well worn clothes that no longer fit him that were on their way to the trash can. I want to use the clothes for the pet bed stuffing.
My question is if it would be better for the pieces to be cut big or small strips and if so, HOW small. I don't want them to get tangled and knotted when washed. One of my local thrift stores sells a huge trash bag of freshly laundered clothing that is too worn to be sold. I think that once my stuff is used up, it would be a very cheap way to get stuffing perhaps some cool buttons too.
Thanks in advance,
Louise
