What to do with an old down pillow?

[lilprincess]

My son recently let go of his old 'down' pillow. Its probably more feathers than down, but it seems such a waste to just throw it out. Any ideas? Nighthauk thinks I'm crazy.. but what else is new?

I've read, somwhere on hf, that some diy'ers got hold of some cheap down jackets just to tear them apart and stuff the salvaged down into quilts of some sort.
Maybe make it into a smaller pillow, for backpacking?

I'd surely never thrown it away...

Good luck

I used pillow down to stuff booties.
