what a great idea! I am going to do that!

I never buy batting smaller than queen size. I find that is the best value for the money, and I can get several small projects from one batt. Any smaller pieces I save to sandwich practice pieces for fmq, or stuff toys and pillows.

i save mine and do pillows and baby quilts with my extra or potholder

Yes, I have trouble too with it puckering so I had gone to hand-stitching it together (& I hate hand work!) but now I have found that tape and I love it. I would like to be able to figure out what I am doing wrong so I could stitch it. It would be more economical. Peggi, where did you order it from?

Same thing I do. Works great for me!!

There is a new product out now that comes on a roll, you butt up your batting and it is a strip about 1-1/2 wide that you center over the edges and press it on. You only have to do it on one side. I saw this done at a quilt show and it felt great and looked great and a great saver. I don't remember the name of it, however I did see it at Fabric Depot in Portland, Oregon the other day. You might be able to do a search at www.fabricdepot.com

This is sort of what I do. I always have fusible interfacing scraps and have found it works better than sewing it together. I used to do the wavy cut and hand sew it together with long stitches. I like the fusible the best.

I butt the two edges together and zigzag. I have only done this on small items not on a fulll size quilt.

I love that idea!

I cut both pieces together with my rulers butted up in a straight across the entire seam I plan to sew. I pin the join together with a very small overlap (just enough to pin) with the points of the pins facing toward the needle and the smaller width of batting on the right. I butt the edges together as I sew with a three stitch zigzag (5 width stitch). As long as the cut is perfectly straight and both pieces can move together, there is NO bunching or puckering. It lays perfectly flat and the join is undetectable to the touch.
