    Only found you today and I’ve been watching while I sew a dress. Just thought I loved your whole process and wanted to say the meaning behind your gift and the history of the blanket, and I thought of something, maybe you could still incorporate the hand embroidered flowers each year on her birthday you could embroider a flower each year and include her in it such as her choice of a motif or the colour of a flower she would eventually end up with a meadow of wild flowers on it. ❤

It's an insidious and terrible kind of mental manipulation that hides it's roots in our belief of self-worth and isn't easy to figure out without being very brave and willing to rock the boat and choose your needs even if others get upset or worse.
