Feeling like a nap? Nothing beats snuggling up under layers of handmade afghans and resting your head on a squishy pillow! My sweet and uber talented friend Elizabeth made me the red and white afghan for my birthday last year – and she made it nice and long for me knowing that I am nearly six feet tall. I just love it! So soft….. So cozy…..Soooo warm! hmmm…I feel a nap coming on! How about you?

How nice of your friend to make an afghans for you. We are also lucky enough to have one that was made by my mother. We still have our first one in the makings.
I love aphgans.
So much love goes into making them and you can feel that love every time you cover up with it!
Warm Hugs,

Such pretty afghans! I've been thinking of crocheting a red and white granny square throw so I enjoyed seeing the lovely one your friend made for you.
Lady we would love to crawl under those blankets

Very cozy! Perfect for an afternoon nap!
The red and white throw is beautiful! I made up the bed with fresh sheets this morning, all white and with extra pillows and a new white fluffy comforter. It all looks like a cloud, I can't wait to crawl in tonight!
Oh how sweet. Looks so cozy. I need a nap! Thanks for sharing.
Have a Blessed Sunday,

I have about 8 hand made afghans that mom made....... when it is cold cold outside I wrap one of those around me and take a nap.... She is there to hold me..... The red and white is beautiful.....
Have a blessed Sunday girl....
That does look cozy and I love your pillows in the background. The scottie pillow is just adorable!! How is your quilt going Becky? I didn't think I would have time to make one right now. I did buy the magazine for the pattern and will be curious to see how you like it.
Definitely took a nice long nap on the couch today, but not underneath a homemade blanket. Very sweet!
I don't blame you for wanting to take a nap under that sweet afghan! Your bed looks so cozy. Thanks for coming to visiting me the other day and leaving such a sweet and thoughtful comment. It means a lot to me!
Lots of love,
Susan and Bentley

O.K. Becky I missed this Sat. The
black afghan looks a lot like the one I have of mom's. She made it
during the war out of wool all
colors of thread. It took her awhile because the thread was
hard to get during that time. I
love afghans, I've made a lot of
them. I love your red and white
one too.
Sweet picture! :)

If it's a gray day, there is nothing I want more than to snuggle under something warm and soft. Those afghans are calling me name!
