19. Patchwork Items

Back to some crafting now – and if you’re a capable crafter, why not offer your services to make sentimental patchwork items (such as blankets) for your customers?

Granted, this won’t involve making money from your own old clothes, but those with lots of items that are seemingly no longer useful could certainly utilize your services and pay you for them.

Parents could, for example, wish to make a blanket from their child’s baby clothes, once the child has grown out of them. It’s a cool and meaningful way to make good use of what would otherwise be unwanted items.
