This was what I woke up to one morning. I was binding the blanket the night before and left it on the table. Umi always find the most comfy thing to sit on. Sometimes it is just on a pile of newspaper, sometimes it is a silk bundle.
Mom's silk blanket is completed. It is reversible, one side is predominantly red and the other green. Binding is black. I did not do any quilting and there isn't any batting in between either. It is for use in a non air-con room with a ceiling fan in summer temperatures. I hope it is cool enough to use. I have packed it up in a box, put a bow on it and given it to mom. She has decided to only open it in August as it is for her birthday. No, she won't see this unless someone in the family shows her. So, . . . do not ruin the surprise.
She is going to love it! Good daughter!

p.s. Umi is looking a little plumper? She must be getting good meals from her mom!

Happy Mom! To be gifted with such a beautiful blanket.
ReplyDeleteHi Fox,
ReplyDeleteUmi has not put on much weight. I think it is the camera playing tricks.
