The edge is very sturdy as she crochets right into the finished blanket stitch on the textile. This sofa throw/bed spread is reversible -- containing 2 layers of quality slipcover and drapery fabric - no fiberfill to get lumpy.The one pictured here shows a predominantly blue denim patchwork array with multi and especially red accents (perfect for Christmas) and includes many plaids, window panes, stripes, checks and watercolor motifs. The reverse side is predominantly reds and greens including polka dots, plaid damasks, tapestry and florals--perfect colors for the holidays. The beautiful rich crocheted border appears to be some fancy soft wool (angora?)in reds, greens and beiges.Irene's clients use her sumptuous reversible textile patchworks for cozy sofa throws, fancy table covers, bed covers and wall decoration.
