I like the idea of the scarves out of flannel. May do that with some of my scraps and send them to Pine Ridge in the next box I send out. :lol:

has any one thought to butt batting as you go along ?That way it saves collecting lots of small pieces .

to lazy and to much in a hurry once i start sewing, to do it then. thats the reason i got into this messy pile!

i still have a drawer full of batting scraps to do, but this is what i accomplished ..


i marked on finished sizes on a post it note..

Ladies, i did not mean for you to think i was organized..ROFL
i just decided it was time to sew them together and quit buying more batting off the bolt,when i had plenty here!

besides, it rained all day here yesterday!! today is sun shine and beauty here in Michigan,no sewing or organizing!

Need to do this myself. Thanks for sharing.

very ambitious of you and you did such a great job! the last 2 wall hangings i made i did the same thing. It's a little time consuming but why not use the pieces and save some money in this economy :-D

I just recently did this & it makes it so much easier to find the right size piece when you need one. I have seen the iron-on tape advertised to piece together batting & I thought there must be something less expensive. I cut light weight iron-on interfacing about 3 inches wide & length I needed & ironed with a medium heat. It worked great.

Smart idea, Kim. I need to follow your example. Thanks for the nice information.
