I have pieces from several different sources that I have difficulty really telling the differences so I generally don't piece them together. My "duh" moment came and now I label each piece of batting and put all like pieces in a plastic bag.

I've pieced batting by butting straight edges together and zigzagging down the seam...Works for me!

Hi All,
pI was reading another quilters blog when I stumbled on this very question. She states that she sews even the "smallest pieces of batting" together..... Uses them in small to medium projects. She them made me laugh by sharing her name for this pieced batting..... She calls it Frankenbatting (after Frankenstein). How funny! I have been saving my pieces ever since.

hugs

I completely agree with you on all counts. I piece bits of batting together as mugh as possible. when the pieces in my scrap batting sack get too small, I give them to a neighbor to stuff dolls and/or animals for charity. Batting is too expensive to waste.
