My Mom used to sit in her green Parker Knoll chair (in fact, like the chair these blankets are draped over...) and crochet blankets.

These are the four last there are of what she crocheted.

She made one for each of her children and children-in-law.

She made one for each grandchild who was baptised. I am not sure if all the grandchildren got to have a baptism blanket.

She made spare ones for the new babies to be born. These have gone to the great-grandchildren.

These photos show the last four - what a legacy!
