While I'm waiting for my Ruby to arrive, my mom showed me how to make a blessing blanket...my first CUTE project! I used 2 fleece blankets and the motifs were sewn on by hand.

How vibrant Lizell, I bet you can't wait for new embroidery machine, you won't have to do it by hand anymore (unless you want to, of course!). Thanks for sharing this great blanket. Love Chris

looks beautiful

great work would have not known that it is your first project.

Beautiful work

wonderful coloured blanket, very well done!

it looks wonderful.

How nice!

it looks wonderful you have a great teacher lol hugs carolyn

Looks great!

Very nice love the red and black together.

Lizell, this is a lovely project and not everything that we share here - has to have embroidery - as we enjoy anything crafty - you did a super job with this - it is stunning work. *4U Shirlene

Such a colorful blanket. No more sewing designs on by hand once you get your embroidery machine.

Beautiful work Lizell and congratulations on your first project posted here. It is great dun having someone to show you what to do when learning. I enjoy sewing with my younger daughter but like you it does not happen often
