early afghan

           You may have seen this couch before; don't remember right now if I have posted any other sketches of it. It is upstairs at Gramma's house, where we often are for a game of Mexican Train. The afghan is an old motif seen more often maybe 40 years ago.  It is a baby size; at least not full size. But it has been on the couch a long time. There is a good contrast between the couch and the color of the sunflowers in the afghan.  Does make me wonder where the afghan came from.  Who made it? My mother, or my wife?  actually probably someone else entirely, like Gramma Ruth herself. 
          This small sketch was done with marker and pencil. Nice to have some variety of subjects to post. The earth is full of stuff of interest for ink and paper.
