Do many of you quilters keep your batting scraps?

I save all mine. Not necessarily to sew some together, but because I'm always grabbing some to do practice FMQ sandwiches. Each time I try a new pattern, I practice, practice, practice.

You can use it for Quilt as you Go or you can use it for pot holders. If I want
to sew some pieces together I trim the pieces straight, butt them together
side by side (no overlap) whip stitch, then go my sewing machine and use a
a large zig-zag that makes 3 little stitches instead of one long stitch.

Thanks for the tips on batting tape and zig zag.!!! I have kept all my scrapes and trust me when I tell you I have bags full. I have pieced them together for a small quilt project (by hand). I also use them for small projects. Never know when a piece of batting will come in handy:::
