    You could always make some down comforters.

    I know when I have worked with feathers when sewing some Frostline kits many years ago, they had you put the feathers in the freezer before working with them and that kept them from going everywhere....but it would be really hard to put a whole mattress in the freezer!!

    I remember going to great grandma's house and slept in her feather bed, it was so soft and comfy, she died at 101.

    All my pillows are made from the feather bed I slept on growing up on the farm. They are messy to make but worth the mess.
