If you use a SwifferSweeper you can cut the leftover batting to size to use on the sweeper.
|
Keep and use for small projects, they make great needle book pages or piece them together and use for practicing FMQ.
|
I save the batting and even them out and sew them together in strips and use for smaller projects. I just use the zig zag stich to sew them together. Saves alot of wasted batting.
|
I save all scraps - zigzag together to make baked potato bags, and any other small project I come across. I make most of my quilts out of embroidered squares. I spend alot of time to embroider them and it does pass a lot of time away.

Either roll them or fold them....But, definetly keep them....Get a plastic storage container.....
|
This is an excellent idea, the one of making a pillow for the humane society!
|
I am such a pack rat but apparently one of a minority of two here on the board that throw away batting scraps. I am hanging my head in shame.
