Making new from old again... these queen sized sheets have been waiting to become a king-sized quilt cover for a while now. Their time has come.

I'm also reading Selvedge and enjoying wandering around blogland this blogtober. I'm gathering inspiration for things I might like to do further down the track when life finds a new kind of normal.

More inspiration at Kirsty's.

    Gah, battling with anything with 'king size' in the description is so far beyond me right now (well, unless that 'king size' is followed by 'block of chocolate') that I quiver with fear for you... Good luck!

    That's a gorgeous trim on the sheets. Can understand why you want to keep it for a cover. Good luck!

    The sheets are beautiful! Good idea making them into a quilt cover.

    I love Selvedge magazine. I need to find somewhere in town that sells it for less than the Borders air freight price!

    Looking forward to seeing that bed cover! King sized is tough to pull off, so this is a fabulous idea!

    Tenacity & determination, tha is what it takes to make anything king size. We have a king bed, love it, but geesh, making patchwork quilts for it, it's like wrestling as you sew!! Could be a new sport?? KING SEWING!! Love Posie
