Silk Swaddling Blanket
I stitched a silk swaddling blanket from silk dyed with avocado stones, coleus leaves, onion skins and saffron. Our third grandchild is due next week, the same day we fly to South Africa for most of April. I wanted something special to be wrapped around this babe so he/she will be be held by my stitches. I had exactly the right amount of silk dyed. This will be so soft and light in the summer with its cotton batting. It is meant to be washed and used up.
Lucky, loved baby.
Absolutely!
Valerie,, this is so beautiful. So perfect. xoxo

Congratulations! A very special blanket lovingly made for a very special baby.
Hope your trip to SA is a great adventure! I’m envious.
So touching and lovely, Val, no doubt the baby will feel wrapped in your arms even though you will be away in April.
All the Best to you and your family,
Chris
