| Heat Press Batting Together |
After finishing a quilt, I am usually left with a pile o'scraps. I've been much better about managing fabric scraps by cutting them up into 5" and 2.5" squares and 2.5" strips which come in handy for a variety of projects. But I've also accumulated a pile o'batting scraps. Some have found use on smaller wall hangings or free motion quilting practice sandwiches. But that's just a small dent in the trunk of batting scraps.
But then I found Heat Press Batting Together in one of my LQS--1.5" wide fusible web tape that can fuse together sections of batting.
Its fairly easy to use. I simply trim the edges of my two sections of batting to nestle together. Cover the seam with this tape and fuse with appropriate iron setting. Turn over and tape/fuse the reverse side.
I pieced together two units of batting when layering my Quick Trip baby quilt and didn't notice any difference when FMQing over the taped sections. In fact, I almost forgot that I had fused together sections. So I will certainly be using more of this Heat Press Batting Together Tape to use up all these sections of batting. Although I may need to get some another roll or two of this tape so I can use all those scraps!
