I have to take a few minutes to brag about my awesome friend. Some of you may remember me talking about her a couple of times--she is my antiquing partner and the one that I spun wool with. Anyway, on Saturday, she brought the most amazing gift for my daughter. It is a handmade duvet and cover, and she made them both with things she had sitting around her family farm. The duvet itself is an old sheet stuffed with wool from their sheep. The cover is an old curtain that she beautifully pintucked and dyed with poke berries. It turned out a lovely pink color, with the pink more saturated on one end and gently fading into cream on the other end. It is just so beautiful, and I love that she didn't spend a dime. She is such a cool and talented person!
