They look beautiful with needlefelted designs and then backed with cotton or flannel, then bound like a quilt. I have made two baby blankets for the latest 2 grandchildren using baby blanketing. You could use applique if you don't like needlefelting. I have several 'found' blankets which I intend doing for our bed (we both feel the cold). The backing takes away any potential scratchiness.

When,, I was younger, and we had relatives stay at our house, us kids slept in the attic, on army cots with wool blankets. Gosh I remember the aches and pains of cot sleeping but I was never cold under those blankets......I wonder where they went?????
