Because a blanket without a border is not a blanket (2)
Good morning sweeties,
I finished doing the border of another blanket of mine … This blanket was made by my mom as a gift on our wedding in 2004 so it is a very loved blanket, mostly used by my husband because it is our biggest blanket so it can cover him entirely when he’s watching TV 🙂 I’ll show it to you today with its new blue border …
Here it is in the living room surrounded by crochet, crochet everywhere 🙂
I tried making the border by crocheting grannies with picots and it turned out very nice…
Here it is in all its glory with its new blue border 🙂
I also enjoy showing you the environment where this loved blanket lives…in the living room…my favorite place in the house 🙂
I just love this big room where all the family members love to snuggle under blankets and enjoy little pleasures life is offering 🙂 It just make me smile looking at the pics…
Wanna see what’s on the shelves?…Let’s have a peek shall we? 😉
and some close ups…
As you maybe already noticed I love small objects and cats in particular…I have a collection of them and you can see cats everywhere in the house 🙂
and I love this photo frame a gift from my sister 🙂 Remembering warms the heart 🙂
Two more pics of the blanket before leaving you my dear…
I enjoyed soooo much sharing with you these pics, hope you enjoyed them too…
Now I am working on two new wip 😉 I’ll leave them as a suprise for you for next time…
Have a beautiful day,

What a lovely wedding present! And the border really finishes it off beautifully.
Your living room looks very cosy and colourful! Just the sort of place I’d like to curl up on the sofa under a blanket with a good book for the afternoon!
So lovely !!!!

I love that border, it’s so simple and so pretty and love all the crochet projects you have on display, beautiful.
I just started on my second granny blanket. Everyone thinks I’m nuts!
Yours are wonderful, so many colours.
Stunning blanket and what a gorgeous sitting room you have. I love all the little cats and crochet of course.x
That is a stunning blanket and it looks perfect in your lovely room with its crochet companions. I am a big fan of picot edging…simple but very lovely xx
What a pretty and cozy room–I would feel so comfortable sitting there and crocheting right along with you!
I share the same sentiments as Victoria. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Angie, again you made a perfect border to a beautiful blanket! How amazing for your mom to give you such a beautiful gift for your wedding. I love the pictures of your living room. It looks so warm and cozy. It must be great to relax in there after a busy day. The cats are so cute.
