A bunch of us in our guild use batting scraps all the time to make a variety of items to sell at our 'boutique' at our Guild shows. We make all different sizes of bags from small to big in a variety of styles from cosmetic bags, bingo bags, craft bags, purses, totes, wallets, change purses. Other items include passport holders, pin cushions, sewer's scrap/thread catchers, table/candle mats, coasters. table runners, placemats, mug rugs, wall hangings, featherweight machine covers & regular sewing machine covers (they are tied on the sides so they will fit of a variety of sizes of machines), fabric boxes of various designs, crayon & color book bags, Christmas stockings, pot holders, and alot more.
We do well with the sales during the quilt shows and it is really a good fundraiser for us. All the money for the sales goes to the guild program fund.
We also use scrap batting to add if needed to the charity quilts that are all different sizes. In addition to the charity quilts each year our guild makes a few hundred double-sided placemats for the Christmas season to give to the local 'Meals on Wheels' program so that each receiver will have something nice to put their holiday meal on.
If you don't like keeping your batting leftovers do ask around as there will be someone who may have lots of uses for it
