Pre-cut wool strips from the 40s
When cleaning out my mom and dad's house, I found an old GIANT can, about 3 feet high and 20 inches wide, full of wool strips and instructions my mother had typed up for making braided wool rugs. I think she was presenting a lesson to the homemakers society or something. I've kept these HUGE wheels of wool strips thinking I would braid a rug...I'm never going to braid, or crochet, a rug. A couple of days ago I had an idea...I can piece them and turn them into a quilt, right? Why not? So, log cabin, rail fence, strips? Any thoughts? I didn't look at all of them, but I think they are all dark colors, saved from suits, clothing, etc. The strips are all about 2 inches wide, light weight wool.
