If you google PENNY RUGS many patterns will come up these can be used for wall hangings, table runners and bed runners. You will need other colors of wool but the blankets can be used for a base. The washed felted (not too felted) surface will work well. The other colors of wool can be bought in one package from places like The Dorr Mill Store in NH (mail order). The blankets can be over dyed quite easily if you want. Green or black dye will make it look vintage. Dyes with red in them will gray it out. Cushings dye are quite simple. Set the dye with vinegar.
