- (January 21, 2010) I have a large very thick queen size feather bed (slightly used)
that I will be discarding. The retail cost was about $350 and I hate to see it go to a landfill.
Is this something that can be recycled by a "quilter" into a lighter weight bed spread, quilt, etc.?
If so , I may be interested in someone making me a bedspread from the feathers or just giving it away.
