- Good God woman - you have the wonderful Rag Market on your doorstep - some fantastic fabric choices there!!!!
- Hi, How about making a traditional patch work quilt cover? Have a look in the library or on the internet, but it's very easy and you will be recycling old materials! Good luck.
- My Mom made a quilt cover for my daughter quilt out of sheets. I can take out the quilt and just wash the cover. She used buttons to keep it closed. I hope this helps you.
- use stuff outta your closet that you dont want anymore . i have a quilt that was handed down to me and it was hand made by my great great grandma and it is made from differant pieces of clothes my gggrandpa had it means a lot
- EBAY Uk site is a good thought for you. I buy on the US site all the time and there are great deals to be found on fabrics.
- Well I use Abakhan's in Stoke on Trent for fabric as they always have good deals and plenty of choice and they have a website too, www.abakhans.co.uk But have a look in your local yellow pages to see if there any other fabric stores closer to you.
- Why not use clothes they have outgrown? It would evoke memories of different times in their lives.
