Not embroidery, but I thought I'd share some photos of the knitted blankets we did as a gift for Hospice this Christmas. While doing them, I discovered a quilt doesn't always have to be made from fabric :-)

These are lovely - PROJECTS might have been a better place to share these - but they sure are lovely - if they are not fabric - what are they?

Hi, sorry, wasn't sure which section to put the post. These blankets are knitted.
These are brilliant! How many people were knitting?

Beautiful work. Best I can do is a skinny scarf or a little pot holder.

These blankets are really wonderful!! I am sure Hospice was very impressed and happy to receive such a lovely gift. Very thoughtful of you to share this with us. Have a great and happy New Year.
They are all very pretty, my favourite is the one but last - I like those pastels.Well done all of you!
These are wonderful and knitted blankets are quite warm. My mom did a wool afghan and no one was able to use it cause it was too heavy and hot.
Ended up as a wall hanging. lol

These all look lovely. Good work. I can't knit....I have had several people try & teach me but just can't pick up the knack of it but I do crochet.
How clever! Thesec arev so much nicer than the knitted-square blankets one usually sees.
Well done!
Well done!
