Product Description
This blanket holds a very special place in my heart. The beautiful whippet featured in the design is Freya—my beloved first whippet, who I heartbreakingly lost far too soon at just nine years old. Creating this piece has given me a way to keep her close, and now I can still cozy up with her on the couch.
