My little Tuesday Treasure this week is a beautiful crochet rug my Aunty made. Over the years she laboured long & hard to make one for all the members of the family so must have made maybe a dozen at least. It is single bed size so lots of lovely granny squares. I received mine in my early 20s & carried it on the planes back with me as I flew from my home town of Nelson, New Zealand to Auckland, then on to Perth. It weighs quite a bit but I was snuggly warm on the flights :)
My mum had one too & as she has now passed, I (& Brutus) have guardianship of her rug for her. As you can see, when little Brutus wants a special warm hug from both his Granny & his Aunty, he snuggles up in the blanket Aunty made for mum.

Hi Tracee. I have one that I snuggle under watching TV that my Nan made for me. I feel a little guilty as a quilter but it's my fav. for telly watching. What lovely warm memories your rugs are for you.....beautiful.
ReplyDeletewow I love the colours in the blanket! and somehow, blankets are always nicer when someone we love has made them. x
