The Versatile and Vervy Half-Moon Quilted Scarf



This isn't just a scarf.


Oh it's a scarf, that's true.

But it is also a fabric-batting-binding-yarny-utterly-stash-busted-scrappy scarf. It is a free-motion-machine-slash-hand-quilted-hand-appliquéed-and-couched scarf.



This scarf is a soft and sweet lovey. Roll it up, it's a cozy muff for your cold cold hands. Could it be a wall-hanging, you ask? Very astute of you, I reply.


In a pinch, it's a stream-lined yoga mat. Or a multi-mug mug rug. Tie it around your head and your husband's gypsy fantasies come true.


Don't have a wrist cuff? Oh yes you do.


This scarf is a table runner. Wear it out dancing 'cause it's a sash baby! With this scarf, you're Queen Nefertiti for a day.


This isn't just a scarf.


Or is it?




Now go have yourself and great day, will you?
