    Default Adult Poncho/jacket made from towels

    My favorite aunt used to wear a jacket made out of bathtowels and hand towels and wash rags. I cannot find a pattern or layout of this anywhere. Does anyone have any idea how to put this together???? I would love to make one for myself, dd and my mother. PLEASE help!! Thank you.

    ~If it's an old pattern you should try Ebay. Just type in the pattern brand and number and search. I've bought several old patterns this way!~

    Thank you so very much! I just purchased one off Ebay! I'm so excited! I think I will make a couple for Christmas gifts, that is if I can get myself one made first. LOL!
