... and on my washing line. 
It's huge! It's clearly made of the kind of fabric used for 1930s eiderdowns, but this is just the fabric.j
Where did I find it?
In my mother's collection, of course!

What shall I do with it?

Maybe make an eiderdown?
You have me confused with the U"....explanation please!
Oh, sad and sweet!

I think it would make a nice sheet or even a summer tablecloth on a long table.
Lovely fabric and how special that it was your Mum's.
The thing is, I think I would just be happy to have it and not do anything with it, but that's probably because I can't sew! RE: U2, words like 'wow!' and 'cool!' come to mind, as it's one of my all-time favourite songs but I've never seen the video, so thanks for sharing!
I think I agree with ElizabethD and would make an eiderdown. I'd be reluctant to use it for a tablecloth in case it got stained- and I wouldnt want to cut it up for smaller items.
Could you get some clips and hang it as a curtain somewhere?
You could make a nice eiderdown cover with this....a good way to cuddle up with Mom on cold winter nights!

Oh it is the sweetest thing! Just beautiful!
How beautiful, I would just sit and look at it!
You should make a quilt top and use this to back it. Really, you know you could do it! You could swap sides when you wanted a change. It's the most scrummy fabric I've seen in ages!
I agree with Angela And Elizabeth - table linens become stained whereas bed linens become family heirlooms.
L.x.
It's so pretty, I would just leave it on the line to make your backyard sweet!! lol
how special to have such a thing from your Mum, do you know how she used it? Maybe replicate what she did?
