      This left me breathless. It's an incredible idea. I can't tell you how much I love it to pieces!

      How unusual, great idea! Did you go around collecting people's blankets and cut them up haha!

      And what did you do with the rest of the blankets?!!

      I felt them mostly. But also use them as cushion backs and I have a few new plans I'm working on. Watch this space! HAHA! But don't hold your breath. I am so slow to put ideas into practice! Mostly I gaze adoringly at the gently coloured pile of wool in the corner of the workroom! :-) t.x

      Brilliant! Funnily enough, when I was looking at the china backstamps, I was thinking you should put them together in a collage or something, and now I find you've already done something similar. Clearly you are a label lover! My favourite ones are the woven labels you sometimes get in vintage clothes, with an elaborate logo or design. There's so much pleasure to be had from these little details!
