For filling the chambers of the quilt I have a pre-weighed section of 1.5" PVC pipe. Combined with the wedge to keep it from rolling off the scale, it weighs 16 oz. I stuff down into the pipe and weigh it until I have the desired amount. Then I insert the pipe into the quilt and push the down out with a dowel plunger. This method allows me to keep the down in a single bag until I'm ready to make a quilt.
