WTB Blankets

[gwagner]

Looking for 2 authentic federal blankets...Sekela, Woodburn, etc.

Need them by end of January.

Of course if you don't have but one, let me know...I expect to buy from two people.

I'll give it a few days before buying two new Sekela ones.

Try and get in touch with Wayne Hutzell at www.dirtybackboys.com
I know he has several brand new Federal blankets from Pat Kline at Family Heirloom Weavers. Hope this helps,

I would suggest trying to contact Bill Lomas at EJ Thomas sutler. He carries the Keagy/Noble Federal issue blanket made by Waterside Woolen Mills, a company that was producing blankets during the war. I don't know where you live or if you are close to Gettysburg but I stopped in at Regimental Quartermaster last Friday and they are also carrying the same blanket. I'm not sure what their price is. I will say that I have one of these blankets and it is superb and very warm. Has US hand stitched in the center and is long enough to wrap around your feet and head on cold nights. I've listed the link to Bill's site below. Hope that helps.

I have one of the Keagy Nobel blankets as well and I am very pleased with it. I was in to Regimental QM today and they still have, i believe, 2 available....
