Default Candlewick Bedspreads

Hello Ladies

I need some help, I would love some
candlewick bedspreads for my crafting, it makes a great backing for some of the rugs and things I want to make, but they go for silly money on e-bay, so I waswondering if you could keep your eyes open when in CS orboot sales and see if you can get any for me.

Ideally white or
pastel colours. I wouldpapal the money and postage costs ofcourse.

I have been looking for ages, but no luck at the moment.

Cheers

Jen

I love them, I had an old one I dyed dark blue, not sure if it's in the loft or gone to a CS. Will let you know if I ever find it.
