Description

I made this afghan back in 1966, at least started.  I was working in delivery rooms at the time and a coworker had made one. She shared the pattern with several of us.  I believe it was called Dutch tile. I don't recall we ever knew who designed the pattern. I made it out of wool purchased from Lee Wards. I made it for myself and it was used for years.  The gold color faded some as it was thrown over the back of our couch.
