This blanket has a checkered history! Unlike most/many blankets—it has often been a source of irritation! Doesn’t work for children’s forts. Doesn’t work for cubby holes. Too big for all the beds in our house—always trailing on the floor! Etc. etc. So we wanted it to have a positive “end”—in the fire of a foundry to make something artful.
