I received a package from Claire last week, containing 8 keffiyehs. Keffiyehs are the traditional Arab headdress fashioned from a square scarf, usually cotton. They are typically worn by Arab men. 
Claire went to a baby shower in Amman where one of the guests had made baby blankets from keffiyehs. She asked me to make several baby blankets for her to give as gifts. I spent some time sewing today, and made four baby blankets. They are soft, colorful, and warm.
