We lived in Tennessee when I was a kid.  People in the country sold chenille goods and displayed them on their clotheslines.  I remember seeing bedspreads with huge peacocks on them.  Even as a child I thought they were hideous.

@Desertdi.  They got bald because little kids like you picked at them.  Don't forget what your face and arms looked like when you awoke from a nap.

Chenille robes had a resurgence in popularity in the 1980's, when I was a Buyer. Idk if they looked the same in the 50's or 60's. But the later ones were more boutiquey & a bit pricey. I still like the looks of them and wish they would be redone again in a better quality chenille. I'm tired of seeing the ones that are made of throw blanket material.
