  37. That is a fabulous quilt. I am sure going to weed out my tea towels when I get home (from visiting Mother). Some have holes, and now that is a GOOD thing; they can be QUILTS! Karmen

  42. Hei!
    Ble imponert av din bruk av gamle duker,gardiner og kj.håndklær til nye tepper og lignende!
    Dette har gitt meg TIPS om hva jeg skal gjøre med en hvit duk somhar fått en skjemmende flekk.
    Her kan jeg skjære duken i kvadrater og legge inn kvadrater av et annet faget stoff eller lignende!
    Håper at det er i orden at jeg kopierer tanken din om gjenbruk av gamle ting?
    Ellers syns jeg din blogg er fasinerende å lese!
