Leftover Batting
#21
I don't bother with the tape or anything..I just butt the edges together and zigzag stitch away. I just did a pretty good sized quilt with my scrappy fluff and washed and dried it three times to make sure there was no shifting. Didn't see a problem at all. I've done this on the last 4 I've done and Its been fine so far.

If you have pieces that are about 3 inches by 45 inches, I would use then in a "quilt as you go" stripe lap quilt. I'd lay out my backing, lay batting strip with fabric strip on top and stitch across the top edge. Then I would add the next fabric and batting strip face down on the last one and stitch down, flip it down and proceed in this manner 'til you get to the bottom of your backing. You have a lap quilt sewn and quilted and just have to put the binding on.
