Frugal Quilting Tips from The Artful Crafter
Eileen, from The Artful Crafter, contributes some of her frugal finds to the ongoing series here at Quilting and Patchwork. Quilters and fabric artists, throughout the years, have been noted for reusing fabric, salvaging old clothing, and finding ways to be creative with various odds and ends.
Eileen has some great ideas:
- I always rummage through the remnant bin when I shop for fabric.
- Friends who don’t sew anymore know I will gladly help them declutter and take their leftovers.
- Friends who have curtains made or furniture upholstered keep just a few scraps for repairs and matching, then give me the rest.
- Out of date upholstery books
Do you have some frugal tips to share with us?
