  • Patent number: 5666679
    Abstract: A large, round blanket structure includes at least two layers, each formed of semicircular sections diametrically joined and overlaid with seams crossed transversely. The layers are held together by stitching parallel to the the seams and stitching through a strip of binding material folded about the peripheral edge of the combined layers. The use of zig-zag stitches about 50% of the width of the binding overlapping at least one of said circular blanket layers provides a rugged construction and is consistent with a design giving the impression of rays of light (e.g., sun light) radiating from the center of the blanket. Preferably the method will utilize corner pieces, cut in making the semicircular sections, to make cone-shaped towels uniquely suitable for cleaning golf clubs and balls.
