Sewing batting
#11
I cut the edges straight and then butt them together and use a "three step" zig zag. Sometimes a regular zig zag will make a ridge in the batting. I do it all the time. Whay waste scraps of batting. I wouldn't waste fabric.

I also just butt them together and zig zag. I had a piece of batting that was 36x90 and neededone that was 60x42, so I just cut it in half and joined the other way, worked great and I didn't waste batting!!

I lay them next to each other, with the edges overlapping, then cut a wavy line with my rotary cutter thru both layers, then the two wavey edges will kinda fit together and I zig zag them. For me it works better than having a straight zig zag line that could show up later when the quilt is finished.
