Here in Queensland, we don't really have a need for heavy woollen blankets...funnily enough, even before I went vegan, I was never a fan of woollen blankets or feather quilts for that matter. I found them way too hot, even in our winter, and I would usually wake up in the middle of the night drenched in sweat.

Yes, I recall some of those heavy blankets too to stay warm as we could always see our breath in the winter. It was seriously cold as my mother too hardly turned up the heat. As would be the case, every winter I would end up horribly sick and chesty. THAT is the thing I miss LEAST about living in England - my constitution does not handle damp cold so well! I seem to recall that my blankets, btw, were always itchy..being wool and all. Did you use hot water bottles too..which often come with their own fleece covers too? <br /><br />Thank you for another lovely contribution, Mary. Glad you found the time..and are back online!

This is just precious. I have 12 grandchildren and have made each of them a quilt or blanket! Something special about a blanket for a newborn.

I loved it, but it was too large for our small regular double size bed and hung on the floor. Thus, finally and sadly I gave it to my son for his big bed. Wishing I could find a smaller one, it was so luxurious. Oh special bedding is so amazingly wonderful. Hope you find just the right thing to satisfy your soul.Marilyn Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13115440271615593122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-32111845360055968002017-10-04T12:08:05.970-04:002017-10-04T12:08:05.970-04:00I bet wool would be warm!
