That would make a fabulous throw! I've seen super soft fake fur throws sell for over $100 and some as high as $400 or more. Two yards for $70 is a bargain when compared to what you pay for ready made.
Yeah, I dream of making a throw from it and snuggling up on the couch, and I'm sure the cat would demand one all for her very own as well. I'll probably grab a couple yards as a birthday gift to myself next year. I can only covet something for so long before I give in to it! :roll: One of the LQS ladies actually used it for the BACK of a quilt! Employee discount no doubt. :lol:
