Three Generations of Crafty Ladies

I wanted to share where my craftiness comes from. Theres a whole lot of crafty ladies and handy men on both of my sides of my family. I think that's where I draw my skills and the love of making stuff from. 

I just took a couple of pictures of blankets and throws that I have at my house to show off the the talents of three generations.

Grandma O's Satin Patchwork Blanket 

I never met Grandma O but damn she was an incredible sewer. I will never be as good as her. Every corner matches and on top of that, it's satin! So hard to sew. The colors are silver, gold, green, blue and brown with red center squares not a color combination I would have come up with but it is so beautiful [a little bias--she was my grandma].
