Quilts Never go Out of Use

We all must have a quilt which has grown old and we are thinking to give it away for good. It may seem odd to you but there is never a correct time to get rid of a quilt. It would be an exaggeration if we tell you that a quilt is for forever, but there are some great ideas through which you can put your old worn-out quilt to a good use. While you always buy home decor online India, why not try something with your own hands?

Let us see such transforming ideas.

1.    Quilt cushion: There must be some blocks of the quilt which can still be used. You can make small cushions out of them. You can also cut strips of the quilt and join them again to get some stylish cushions.

2.    Wall decor: You can put literally anything old as a wall decor and quilts are no different. They would give your walls a retro look. Cut quits in a square or different shape of your choice, stitch the ends and hang them on the walls.

3.    Baby quilt: You can make a small baby quilt out of an old quilt from the portion which can still be used. You can also cut down cloth fabrics to add some design to it.

4.    Mats: Quilts can be converted into mats too. You can make table mats for the dining table or for the kitchen. Add more beauty to them by sealing the ends with satin ribbons or velvet border.

 

5.    Banner: In India ‘bandhanwar’ is quite popular. They are hung over the door accompanied bells, they make a sound every time a door is shut or opened. You can make small cut-outs of the desired shape from the quilt and join them with a lace to tie over the door.

6.    Bags: Nearly every clothing can be reused as bags. If you want some not-so-fancy tote bags, then you can recycle an old quilt and make bags out of it. You need to put a protective and supporting layer of cloth inside the bag so that it may last longer.

7.    Modern art: If you have a quilt with nice design and good color, you can put it as modern painting in the frame. They make a great piece for tables and windows.

8.    Cleaning cloth: At last when you think that there is nothing an old quilt can do for you, it can always be used for cleaning.

So, you should not say that your quilt is of no use, it actually can be pretty useful in a variety of ways. It all depends on you how you use them. After doing that, do not forget to buy some new quilts online India.
