I have tons of batting scraps and decided to give them to the dog rescue groups to make bedding. I buy pillow slips at thrift stores and hand them over to some young dedicated quilters who like to make these beds. I keep only really big pieces that are perfect for totes or purses but the rest goes. I think this year I will start buying only one kind of batting and I can then join it. Right now I have too many brands and thicknesses.
