Left over batting uses??????

Cat toys! Draft dodgers for leaky windows! Seat belt cozies! I put them in the bottom of houseplants - when you water, dirt stays put, but can wick up water if plant needs it. Sometimes shoes are a scootch too big, and it is a good toe-stuffer. The others already got the rest .

How about using the left over batting for the panels for a quilted handbag? I cut mine 14 X 15 and often I have that much left over on the edge of a batting. If you have pieces 7 or 8 inches wide, , you can cut several pieces and zig-zag them together. Once they are inside the quilted piece, one would never know.
Oh, I forgot to tell you, my middle name is "frugal" and if you could see my basement, you would know it is true.

I too had a closet full of bating scraps. Well, we got a puppy a few months ago and wanted a doggie bed for her. I had been given some fabric scaps like you make slip covers out of only it wasn't enough to do anything with. I made a big pillow case and stuffed it with batting and sewed the end shut. Its probably a little lumpy cause of the different types of batting, but she doesn't care and it save me around $30 bucks or so.
