I rather like the idea of putting it to bed in a guest room! My small
guest room has enough quilts on the bed to smother any guest, since
that is where I store quilts -- an entire stack of them all spread
out! Because the cat likes to nap there, I then cover the entire bed
with a spare sheet so the room looks "normal". The quilts stay clean
and don't face issues with folding. If enough guests arrive so I need
to use that room for somebody I roll all of the quilts into a giant
roll and drag it into my bedroom and leave it on the far side of my
bed and throw the spare sheet over it for the duration. Underneath
all those quilts, the quilt-storage bed has clean sheets and a nice
quilt ready for a guest. It's rather unorthodox, but works, and I
would think a roll of batting tucked into bed would be just fine! The
batting would stay clean, not turn into a nasty mess, not get damp,
not deteriorate from extreme heat, and be fairly easy to get to when
you need to cut a hunk off. A night cap at the top, slippers by the
bed, and a book open on the night stand would make it interesting and
homey, too.


Love this picture. Wish I had the guts to try it, but David would think I'd
gone batty.

Polly:

Gee, I cannot find original post, but have suggestion. Cut about 6 - 10
pieces of batting in the size you use for the baby quilts. Store those in
convenient place, then you can shift the big roll to a more remote corner.
How about hanging it by slinging a rope through the tube and over ceiling
hooks ... like a GIANT paper towel roll! Otherwise, the spare bathroom tub
is good.

What type batting did you buy? Pat in Virginia
