I keep a lot of my batting scraps. I've used them for everything from padding for my splint when my ankle was broken to making fender covers for my husband to use when he works on the show cars! I find it to be very useful stuff. I've made pads to put between my china plates for they won't get scratched out of practice pieces of FMQ. There's tons of uses for leftover batting!

I used strips of batting like adding machine tape to make this fireplace screen for DD.

I use them in my swiffer for dusting. they're great for picking up cat hair and stray threads, and just general dust.

Coasters, tote bags both in handles and the sides/bottom.

You can also use it for purse and tote bags. Use two layers in the handles.

I marked the bag "quilt batting" so that the workers knew what it was and that it had value. I look at it like I look at clothing that I no longer wear. It's just being wasted laying around the house, and somebody out there needs this.
