  and cat was in vogue then.

  poor Cat.. but in the movie, Cat was tossed aside as a proxy for their emotions, then found again...

  Breakfast at Tiffany's also had one of the worse racial stereotype ever played on a major motion picture

  anyway, I found some spare cloths made into patchwork rugs in Johor Bahru.

  Is thinking of picking up the skills where I seen my grandmothers use old clothes and make itto some kinda textured quilted ruffles floor rugs.

  Any ideas any CC teaching those?

  Then no choice.  Will have to figure out how.

  So far, my old clothes are used only as disposable rugs.  They are mostly synthetic materials some more.

  Those old style floor rugs are very comfy to have under the feet when coming out of the shower cos it really soak up water.

  Yes, but the DJs at Zoo 101.6 were the party animals that really started 95fm going with their good tunes.
