Glacier National Park blankets are one of my favorite wool blankets. I love the stripes and primary colors. The blankets have been around since the 1900s and made by Pendleton Woolen Mills using 100% virgin wool. Each blanket is named for a specific U.S. national park. I have always been drawn to the Glacier National Park blanket. I am trying out these colors on a new stripe painting I am working on. I’ll post some images once I get it a little closer to completion. For now check out Pendleton’s website and explore the great outdoors.

I was just cruising through my bookmarks for a little inspiration. I thought I would share my two favorite patterns from the Swedish company, Mairo. So pretty! I am in love with this fabric. The colors and pattern feel so juicy and organic.

Tartan wool blankets are classics. The colors and patterns vary depending on clan. Who cares if your not Scottish. Pick up a few of these and drape on couches and beds. Think Ralph Lauren ads/Log Cabin retreat.
