Quilts on a Budget

February 26, 2014 by FaveQuilts

Quilts are a lot of things: beautiful, artistic, sentimental . . . but more than all that, they’re expensive. Try to just walk into a store and buy a quilt off the shelves and you’re could be looking at hundreds of dollars out the window. Why spend all that money when you can put together a warm and wonderful quilt by yourself, at low cost? For the thrifty homemaker, we’ve put together a selection of scrap quilt patterns and easy quilt patterns that anyone can make. There’s no reason why keeping warm should have to cost a fortune—especially not in a winter like this one.

Scrap Quilt Patterns
