When all medallions are crocheted whip together eight to form one strip, make seven such strips, then whip these together using the same thread as for crocheting.
Fringe—Cut a piece of cardboard 7 in. long and 3 in. wide, wind warp around this about fifty times, cut through one side and lay these threads to one side, cut several hundred such pieces, pick up nine of these strands of warp fold over one time, slip loop end through a mesh in edge of bed spread and draw cut ends through this loop—repeat in every other mesh around both sides and one end of spread. Press spread and trim fringe evenly.
