People sell things they no longer need and put up signs on street corners and advertise in local papers and on the internet and display them in their garage or yard. I have found an amazing amount of quilting related items for very little money. If you have those types of sales in the UK I recommend you try them. I admire you for your perseverance.
:D

I've learned that sometimes it's better to not say anything about cutting garments up! :oops:

I think I will take one of my quilts along with me next time to show them just what you can achieve from discarded clothing....might get a few orders ;-)

Wishing a visit to your area was possible. And a tour of all the
