I use strips of lightweight iron on interfacing. .99 cents a yd

I looked at it, but @ 10 yds for $8.00 I don't think it's worth the price. It doesn't take very long to zigzag or serge batting together.

i've only used it to hem pants...it's wonderful..it has lasted for over a year, but i don't think it will last for many years...i think the recommendation to butt the seams and zigzag stitch is more durable...

I use leftover pellon.

Never used the stuff, just whip stitch it together or zigzag it with sewing machine.

That seems expensive. I use my scraps for my QAYG projects. A little spray adhesive to the backing and they work great.

I have used it and personally do not think it is worth the money. I like to butt them together & zig zag as well.

Have it, not tried it out yet, but I am getting low on batting and have lots and lots of pieces, so maybe its time to experiment.

I have used it when putting smaller pieces of left-over batting together for wall hangings etc and I do like it as when quilting the finished project your needle doesn't go down between the batting pieces.
