About forty years ago I began making a patchwork bed spread. It started off with my old clothes and stuff I gathered from jumble sales and other people. |

I just have to get stuck in now for the home straight but, even if I knew how, I think it would be too big for me to quilt myself. |

Sharron Go to a market and buy yourself some cheap fabric by half a metre one metre etc and cut your own squares. |

Have you thought about cutting up clothes from a charity shop? |

There is all that stuff already in there. Jumble sales of forty years ago were very different affairs from what they are now and I never did like them much anyway. |
