Wrap Wednesday - Use of Pashmina

Does anyone still uses Pashmina?  I seem to recall before I retired in 2010, everyone was using it and for some reason I got a few that I received as gifts.  When we were in the process of moving, I had to give away some or maybe I sold them at a garage sale.  Anyway, I still have at least six or so.  While trying to reorganize the closet in my sewing room, I saw them again.  I was wondering how big some of them were and would they be big enough to cover the bed.  Of course, not the whole bed but just the width.  I picked a couple and iron them and tried them in our bed and in one of the guest bedroom which was upstairs.  The result was not bad.  When my sister was visiting last October she made us one for our bed.  I started calling them bed scarf.  She started a red one when she was visiting last May, unfortunately she did not finish it and maybe the next time she visits, she can finish it. Really there's no rush since that one is for our extra guest room downstairs.  Now are you wondering what I am talking about.  Aside from using Pashmina as a scarf, you might want to try using it as a bed skirt at the end part of your bed.  The only trick is that you pick something that compliments the color and design of the bed cover.  I think mine is ok.  What do you think?
