I have made 5 crochet blankets to put in my family's christmas gifts . I have 3 more to show you before the weekend . I just have to weave some ends in .
They could be on the bed as a little extra tootsie warmer but I have made them to snuggle into when curled up on the sofa to use as a lap quilt .
This is my red christmas quilt for myself . I'm hand quilting it , I want it to be soft . I think you get that effect with hand quilting . I really do like the structured feel of machine quilting and I like doing it . I shall most likely do machine quilting on the border for extra strength .
It's very cold today but I'm not complaining, at least there are no floods in the area I live .

Thankyou so much
I love that red quilt! It is beautiful!! It will be so lovely having that on your bed for Christmas. The crochet blankets look very snuggly and warm....and very big. You're so quick making them. I made one during winter and it seemed to take forever to finish it. Kerry x
