Here is The Famous Blankie, made for me by TNH, Stitchin' Sedition and ORSig friends, and held by the project organizers Anhata (the headless one--sorry about that, Hata) and Melisa:



And here am I, wrapped in it:



Thank you from the bottom of my heart, all of you. It means more than you know.

It's beautiful. I wondered what happened with that. You are more than welcome:)
By the way, i can see a guitar and a banjo hung on the wall in the background, we have those same instruments on the wall in our house too.

about the guitar and banjo

So I have some skill with woodworking, and I made the Banjo from a kit about 5 years ago. Wonderful instrument.

The guitar you see belonged to my much beloved grandmother, Gladys. I think of her every time I pick it up.

The 3rd instrument missing from the wall is Josie's guitar (3/4 sized).

This will sound silly, but I don't play guitar *or* banjo. I do enjoy instruments immensely, tho.

My husband plays guitar and banjo. When our boys were little (we had 4 kids in 6 years), my husband found he wasn't playing because they had to be stowed somewhere safe. So, he mounted them on the wall where he could get at them but they were safe:)

it's hard to see in this picture

But it's the light blue and white garter stitch square toward the middle. It's soft and squishy!

I have a bad memory!

I remembered it as darker, but almost all I ever knit is squares (mostly dishcloths), so it's hard to remember which was which!
