Here's the one I started last weekend... color altered to keep its identity a secret:
And this one I started during the staff meeting on Thursday. My other two were too big to haul into a meeting so I started this black and white one:

Annemarie asked the other day if I'd ever considered starting up an Etsy store to sell these things. The answer is YES, but... Yes but I feel like I have so many people in my life that I care about who I could make blankets for, first. Lord knows we could use the extra money, but it doesn't feel right to sell my stuff when there are still people I know who would love them. The best thing about making a blanket is giving it away to someone I love. Most of the time that's a lot of my motivation for making it--thinking about how happy it will make the person who receives it. So the answer is maybe someday.
Happy Saturday. I'm off to spend a lovely day with E and the monkeys.

Beautiful! I wish I had the ability to make something so nice, snuggly and pretty. I was absent the day God gave out any sort of artistic/crafty talents. That's why I make friends with those kind of people! :)
ReplyDeleteI love the colors on those top two blankies. Well done!
