Millie was given lots of blankets. As I looked at them last night while putting some laundry away, I realized that a good portion of the blankets she has were made by family! She's got quite a tradition to get in on. I think handmade blankets are beautiful and special... seriously, check these out.
Grammy made two of the blankets in that stack, both SO beautiful.
Cross-stitched Peter Rabbit characters
I can't imagine how much time each of these took! They're so beautiful.
This beautiful pink blanket was made by Gretchen. She has this pattern memorized- memorized!! Pretty amazing.
Then the quilts from my mom... I think the first one may be the inspiration for Millie's nursery once we get to Houston and have our own place. I just love the colors!!
And finally, the chevron blanket I crocheted. Took forever but I love the way it turned out! The pattern is HERE if you're interested.
I count 3 generations of blanket-making represented here... and it goes further back I'm sure. No pressure Millie!
