Last night I made pillow form covers, and today I am filling them with some of the many bags of scraps from my studio...
The scraps make a nice firm pillow form that deflates only a little bit over time. I mix the scraps with fiber fill to keep it light enough to be comfortable. The scraps consist of fabric edges, batting that's too small to use otherwise (I cut it smaller with the rotary cutter), excess edges from old t-shirts that are now rags, thread scraps...you name it -- it's in there.
I started piecing this quilt last week and I'm not pleased with it...yet. I've got some ideas on how to make it better. Stay tuned...
