[quote=Anonymous]I received three hand knit/crocheted blankets for my wedding. I kept them a little while because I loved the people that made them, but I thought they were ugly and were not in colors I preferred for my home, but I was much younger and not as picky (or able to decorate as well) as I am now. The crocheted one had lots of deliberate spaces in it which turned out to be very useful for wrapping my cat so I could pull one leg through at a time to trim his nails.

My wedding colors are definitely not the colors I want around my home every day. If you decide to move ahead with the project, why not make something not just functional but which would also go with their home decor vs wedding colors?

I would mainly not want to receive something handmade as a gift, but if it could look like the beachy or chalet throws I see in Serena & Lily, Restoration Hardware, etc. (and if it was not made of something itchy) then I would like and use it. I just can't do clutter for the sake of clutter/not hurting people's feelings anymore.[/quote]
