colourful handmade material from South America (Woodley RG5)

this lovely woollen material measures 88cms in length by 39 cms wide; it was originally made as a large bag for carrying fruit or vegetables to market but in fact it was ideal to pack away blankets and sheets so they were kept safe where there were no cupboards, it would make a lovely rug or a wonderful cushion cover, or a striking decoration on the wall.
