keep it and make a wall hanging and you could always make the wallhanging to fit inside of a cool wooden picture frame

nice thoughtful hubby

What a thoughtful hoosband. Here's a thought--since it doesn't match anything in your home and if you'd like to keep it, why not try working with it using a technique like the Ricky Tims convergence technique! you cut it up in different width sizes--like keep the head one whole width-- and cut up another fabric and sort of interlace them. There's lots of examples of that technique around. just a thought from someone day dreaming at work. . .
edited to add: I'm very glad you're feeling better. I too live with someone who has been in constant pain, with good days and bad days. Hooray for you.

Keep it, it is his gift to you.
How sweet of him to think of you that way.
If it don't match any other room put it in your sewing room. IT is to precious to give away.

yes, since your DH went out and bought it...keep it and put it in your sewing room. Every time he goes in there he will be reminded of how much you love him and appreciate his efforts.
keep it girlfriend!

If my DH gave me something like that I certainly would not throw it away! Make it up and find a place for it to hang.
What a wonderful way for him to tell you he loves you.

Keep it! Husbands like that are few and far between I lost one about 1 1/2 yrs ago and still talk to him like if I went some where and something we talked about has changed then it hits me.
