    The tape works really well. I piece my ends and I have been to clear up a lot of my batting remmants.

    I have started making pin cushions out of canning jar rings, and scraps of fabric, plus batting pieces that I ball up for the cushion. I then use them as little blessing balls with a small note of encouragement that I hand write and attach to a safety bin to the rounded part. Just a neat way to give encouragement, and use up lids that seem to come out of nowhere..

    I cut left over fusable interfacing into strips and fuse them together to add to a larger piece to get to the right size. Also use them for smaller projects if I am going to machine quilt them, as of course the quilting holds them into place as well as the interfacing.
