    My Mom was cleaning out her fabric closet and passed along several old chenille blankets that she picked up a long time ago at a yard sale...they are all slightly damaged but are going to be great for quilts. She also passed along this cute "elf" fabric. Thinking I may use these two together for a few baby quilts...love the bumpy chenille with the elves....

    It looks like some of the elves may be Kewpie dolls. Anyway I love the fabric.

    I was thinking of using an old chenille bedspread to make snowmen but I like your idea of a baby quilt, too.
