She Stole My Heart....... Farmhouse Crochet Blanket

I saw her from afar. She lured me to her. I had to fight the crowds to get to her. I was prepared to do anything to anyone who was getting in my way.
This vintage crochet blanket was found at a French Flea market. She was looking sad, neglected and unloved as she was lying in a heap of old ragged linens. I couldn't fully check her out before buying (it is hard to unfold a giant blanket on a muddy street), so I took a gamble.
And boy, did that gamble work out. She washed up beautifully, is in perfect condition and simply gorgeous.
This crochet blanket was exactly what my bedroom needed to be ready for Spring.
Except.......
You'll have to read the post about what happened next.

Vintage crochet bed spread. Perfect for a farmhouse bedroom.
I love the contrast between my all white bedding and my rustic headboard.
The blanket has a pattern of flowers, popcorn baubles and roses. Very intricate and beautiful. The maker put a lot of effort into this one.
My farmhouse bedroom, ready for summer.
