Moving Blanket/pad Gambeson

Not sure how to post pictures but made a decent Gambeson out of a moving blanket. The padded type you put over furniture and what not. Wish I could have found a different color it is like a light blue. A brown one would have probably been a little more appropriate. But a nice sleeveless Gambeson just figured I'd share the idea.
 
Huh. I'd never have thought of that. Thanks!
 
I'm curious how it looks!
 
im larger so it only goes just below the waist and had to make it sleeveless.
 
I always found it discouraging to put tons of effort into a great looking armor like a padded gambeson, only to be "rewarded" with the worst possible armor value per location. This despite how tough such armor was, historically speaking.
