Once you take it off, it can be put at the foot of the bed to keep feet warm.
This is a great shawl that can also be used as a lap robe, I have made several ,They are very easy and great when lined with flannel, I do not buy jelly rolls, I just make them like a patchwork or use large pieces of fabric.

It is also very helpful to sew strings or ribbons onto the quilts to tie onto the wheelchairs so that the do not slide off and get trapped in the wheels.
