Just a mixed craft post today -the first crochet blankie is the 13th one I have made for Hollie since she was born-she is now 16yrs and still has them all on her bed. She picked the colours and must admit this is my favourite of them all -my fave colour being green-it measures 4ft x4ft and was definitely a labour of love.
Thank you for dropping by and any comments are much appreciated.
The second one I made a few months ago and then a couple of graphite drawings from Helen.

Whoa all those blankets! I too like the green one and your daughters drawings are wonderful. Lets hope the snow is not with you for long.
ReplyDeleteHope the snow doesn't hang around too long Carol, think it's meant to be getting milder- not a fan of snow as early as November (well at any time really!)
ReplyDeleteYour crocheted blankets are beautiful- the green is my favourite too. Your daughter is very talented, such wonderful drawings.

ReplyDeleteOh, your beautiful blankets! I love that Hollie keeps all 13 on her bed. My mom made oodles of these as lap blankets for nursing home patients. Helen's artwork has always blown me away. I was stunned the first time you showed it and I'm still stunned. You are a very talented family!
ReplyDeleteThe crochet blanket in green is such a standout piece, and it is touching that Hollie has kept all thirteen together over the years. The size and detail make it feel like a true labor of love. Helen’s graphite drawings add a striking contrast to the softness of the blankets, showing the breadth of creativity in your family.
ReplyDeleteNot a flake here this week! Hope you stayed warm and cosy!
ReplyDeleteThose lovely crocheted blankets will certainly keep you warm while you make them!
Fabulous artwork from the talented Helen too. Amazing detail. xxx
Very soothing crocheting simple blankets - my fave is the one with the pinky-purple with the blue centre. xCarolG
ReplyDeleteBeautiful blankets, love the green tones and beautiful artwork by Helen. Snow here in Cornwall is a very very rare sight and even more so for it to stay more than a few hours
ReplyDeleteLovely crochet work Carol, those types of blankets are very warm and cozy. Helen's pencil drawings are superb, they must have taken ages to do.

Hollie, I am sure will treasure all her beautiful blankets Carol. Your stitching is so neat and tidy, my tension is all over the place lol. Wow Helen never disappoints! These are absolutely stunning! I hope that snow has cleared away now!!
ReplyDeleteOh forgot to thank you for your card. It arrived and is the first one to be displayed!! Thanks so much. It's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHi Carol, just a little noter from Lisa Peronto to say thank you so much for her Christmas card, she was just thinking about you and the card turned up, so she is a happy camper now, but still cannot contact you, only on here through me..hope you are well, stay safe..
ReplyDeleteLuv CHRISSYxx
Gorgeous Blankets, I've never been one for knitting or crochet but certainly love seeing other xx
ReplyDeleteSorry I haven't been around but I just got back from a little Mexican warmth now ready for the onset of winter. Sorry to hear you have already had snow.
Art definitely runs in your family, Carol. I love the green blank too!
