Quilting - made up some batting sandwiches


 I made up some batting sandwiches for the casserole carriers I have been making.  I used polyester batting remnants from Mom's stash.  When I brought them home they were headed to the second hand store but in the mean time it only seems reasonable to use up as much of this "free" resource as I can.  I am using a polyester sheet that was headed for the garbage because of how thin it was but it worked perfectly for making layers for both sides of the batting.  I cut several 24" squares and then laid the batting pieces on one and once it was covered I laid another one on top and stitched up several lines to keep everything in place.  Worked really well.  I expect Mom did this as well because there were several bags of small to medium sized pieces which was nice for getting four of these done!!  I will be using them up as I continue to make casserole carriers for Gramma Link Africa.  Therese
