Hope everyone is okay and feeling good, its getting hard all this staying in thank goodness for crafts, I finished the blanket   I was knitting  and now onto number two, I will put a picture of the blanket at the bottom of the post, its 40 x 40 inches and used to cover Mum or  Dad when holding the prem babies skin to skin..


                                                         Take care and stay safe

  2. Morning Lillian. That's a beautiful blanket - well done. However long did it take? The colours and patterns are lovely. Will the second one be the same? Great card on the desk - and well done finding all those not-quite-finished cards! Enjoy finishing them.
    Take care. God bless.

  5. I think we all get those days Lilian, it must be very hard keeping strong when you are on your own. I think all we can do is get through one day at a time and then you realise that the dark clouds have gone. In the meantime, crafting really helps, your blanket is beautiful, lovely colours!

  16. What a lovely card, Lilian - the little house is so cute and the glitter looks really cold and snowy! Also, your blanket is beautiful. I love the idea of cuddling prem babies skin-to-skin under such a beautiful covering! What a comfort that must be for them.

    Thank you for visiting - yes, the kitty throw is coming on OK. I agree, our kitties are really beautiful with lovely markings. Their father was a pedigree Silver Tabby English Shorthair and their mother a brown and white tabby, hence the white on them. They also have slight brown tinges here and there - Ruby especially with her summer coat. I always say to her we didn't sign up for brown tabbies and if she turns brown I shall sell her on Ebay!! (Empty threat of course - brown or silver, I still adore her!)

    Happy belated WOYWW,

  17. Such a cute card Lilian and I love the winter shimmer to it - just adorable. The blanket is such a worthwhile thing to make and must really make you feel good knowing it's going to be a real benefit to people. Sorry to hear you had a few bad days, hope they just keep getting better for you now.
    Have a good rest of the week, I'm playing catch up as usual!
