Christmas Blankies

I made 5 of these little quilts for the youngest granddaughter's dolls. I forgot that I hate working with satin and bumpy chinelle and I put both of them together for these blankies. I am glad the little ones are to young to notice what a sloppy job I did.

The baby in this blanket is one that Merilee got when she was just 6 or 8 years old.

I made the lap quilt below for my mother. I wrote a poem to go with it.

Long Distance Hug

I made this little lap quilt filled with blue skies and bouquets,
I added summer sunshine to brighten wintery days.
Each stitch was made while missing you;
Each stitich was made with love;
So, when you wrap it snug around you -
I am giving you a hug!

PS - I think she will cry.
