I found this old blanket in the cupboard...
don't know where it came from...
had it floating around for many years...
nearly went to the shed for use as whatever the shed may have needed it for...
as you can see here it was very moth eaten...
so not very pretty to use on the bed...
and mine always complained of the scratchy wool...
so..
I got out an old doily tablecloth which was too small for my table...
and an old doona cover for the backing...
sewed them about a bit...
and ta-da!!...holes hidden...
that looks so good now...... i love the way a bit of thought can change the look & purpose of old things.
ReplyDeletethe label looks old, wonder how far back the blanket goes?
you can't go past wool for warmth
