My Aunt Glenda made this when she was 90, she is 96 now. Says she can't see good enough anymore to do this. She hand wove that entire design into the material. I have so many things around here that she has made or given to me.I'm very lucky to have an Aunt Glenda.
Plan on going to the thrift today. Hope I find something good.

Beautiful and so intricate, what a treasure to have and pass down to your children.
Wow, Aunt Glenda made that at 90? She is awesome!!! Good luck at the thrift store today!
OMG! How did she do that???? Your Aunt Glenda and so many women like her were SO talented and still are even at 96! Is that Scandanavian weaving? I have a UFO like that but I don't think my design was nearly that intricate! It's too bad thay can't give classes so we could all learn these lost arts.
Hi Nancy Jo, wow! This is a work of art. Your aunt is an incredible lady. It is so delicate and beautiful. I know that you must treasure it! What a special gift. Knowing that she made that at 90 is so inspiring to me! I hope you are having a nice week. It sure has been cold up our way. It was windy last night and 21 degrees. It felt much colder than it actually was. Have a lovely morning! Delisa ;)
Nancy-jo,
What a treasure your Aunt is and what a treasure that woven blanket is!
