My maternal grandma turned 84!
She has introduced me to so many crafts and nursed my interest in yarns. I saw my first log cabin motif when she spread her knit afghan across the couch and pointed out the light and dark diagonals. (Such a novel idea to my eight-year-old self.)

This pillow is a beautiful example of her needlepoint. I just love the color scheme of bright and cheery pink with cool blue. Blues and yellows have been my favorite since I was little and the gold yarn is a really pretty accent color for this piece.
Thank you, Grandma for all the beautiful handcrafted gifts. There is love and warmth in every stitch.





That is absolutely gorgeous!
That pillow is beautiful! How wonderful to share a love for crafts with your Grandma!
Happy Birthday, Grandma!!
