Leftover Batting

Zigzag them together & make an AAQI mini quilt. Join the Quilt a Month Club & help raise money for Alzheimer research. http://www.alzquilts.org/paq.html
Great idea for scrappy back!!!
QAYG: The fun & done quilt I did used 7.5" batting squares. But you can make batting squares any size, so once you zigzag batting scraps together, square them off...cut the backing 2 inches larger...strip piece top. OH NO! I'll have to do at least one square today :)

I used them to stuff small animals to give as gifts.
I also make lots of flat Christmas tree ornaments and give them away to everyone. Good way to use up the fabric scraps too.
If I can find the photo of the stuffed pig, I'll send it...

Piecing them together works - and it does not need to be a neat straight seam - just so it is not bunched up - and the smaller pieces you could do a quilt as you go quilt - My MIL does many of those; she throws nothing away until it is in need of a magnifying glass to see it! lol Have a great day!

You can also make stuffed toys, or pillows from them; they make great stuffing.
