Amelia and Sophia's blankets

One of my favourite people recently had twins. They are gorgeous. No surprise there. 

Both girls have a similar blanket in very slightly different colour-ways, pink-heavy by request.  

Alternate patches in silk to fit in with the more traditional colour-scheme. For the first time I have used a patterned backing with a sweet koala bear face on it, I think this will fit in well to their beautiful nursery that Emma and Nick have made ready for them now they are finally back home!

James + Charlotte's Blanket

A commission for some friends who have just moved in together. Backed with dark grey wool, another heavy blanket, with bright patterns from around the world.
They once made a devisive green tea panna cotta, which is honoured with some pieces of jade cotton with gold detail that my Aunt brought back from a trip to China about 25 years ago. Glad it has found a good home with Goat and Charlotte. The cactus is one of my favourite new additions to my fabric mountain.

Anna's Blanket

A wool-backed blanket in muted dusty pinks and greys for Dr Nagy.

Matt's Stegosaur

A commission for a birthday present for my uncle's collection:

Introducing to you, the handsome, pocket-sized model Stegosaurus.

Marley's Bunting

Another very very late present for a mega cute baby...
Name bunting recently described "a must" for anyone with children by the stylish and talented J. Charles.
Again sorry for the terrible photo. 

Bespoke blankets - Baby Emily

 A friend from work is having a baby girl. I had a feeling she would want something a bit more glam than I usually make, so I picked up some tips to make a suitably elegant present for her imminent arrival.

Eleri's blanket

Made for one of my favourite people, another large, bright quilt full of African prints, fabrics her parents may recognise (ie. our old family curtains, my Dad's old shirts, etc) and some more beautiful silks and liberty print cuttings from my talented friend Ayten.

When it is this cold, the extra layer of a vest or a teddy from Ayten's collection goes a long way.

This is backed with a lightweight blanket so that it can be used in the summer too.
