Good use of scraps....

I take the strips and put them in a plastic bag, rebag it a few times and then use as a puppy toy. My little JC loves it. When she rips the bag, put a new one over it and go at it again. It is fun to see a little pup carrying a big wad of batting in a bag. I use the cotton little pieces for cleaning up dust on longarm. As stated above makes a wonderful duster. I do the longer strips butted together to make larger batting to use for scrap quilts, table runners, etc., The cotton scraps do work great to clean off my dry erase board. I do cut or rip up to fill my stuffed toys for the dog. Also, you can make great puppy beds with the scraps as well.

to make pillows we took a piece of batting and sewed two sides making a pillow case out of it , left a 6" extra tab one side. Stuffed it with flat pieces of batting and tucked in open side. put a fabric cover on it , can come off to clean or replace. if goes flat to much, add more. using them as cushions to sit higher to sew.
