Mom's blanket



Since Mom decided to stay a few days longer than Dad and Susan at Christmas, I decided to give her a project to do. :-) I had a ton of jeans that I wanted to make into another blanket. Armed with ten yards of flannel I got on sale the day after Thanksgiving, we set to work. Correction--Mom went to work. I tried to help but was really just moral support. In three days she cut, sewed, and quilted the whole thing. Very impressive! We've really enjoyed having picnics in the basement and snuggling under a blanket than can fit all three of us. Thanks Mom!

I took a picture next my usual blanket so you could see how big it really is.
