Big thanks to Monica at s w e e t p u r l s, for these beautiful squares for the Coastal aran-weight hospice blanket:
Aren't they pretty! They are made from Martha Stewart's Extra Soft Wool Blend, and are true to the description - so wonderfully soft. Such a lovely shade of blue too. Now, as if this wasn't kind enough, Monica also sent some lovely stitch markers too. You really are super sweet, thank you so much.
A couple of days later I received a package from Wendy at WendyWorld containing these gorgeous wonky log cabin squares for the hospice quilt. These were exactly the types of colours I had envisioned when thinking about a quilted blanket. Thank you so much Wendy, they are beautiful. Naomi thanks you for the candy canes too :)
This morning I received an email from Wendy's Mum... she has also created a couple of wonky log cabin squares for Bertie's Blankets. I can't tell you how touched I was. Of course I immediately emailed my Mum to share the wonderful news and she had the same response I did - tears. Happy, happy tears in response to such kind words and deeds.
Thank you so much.
I've also been working on squares for the coastal aran blanket and the sock yarn blanket. They are starting to come together, and thanks to your help I am super excited about getting a couple of blankets to Trinity Hospice early this year.
With all these squares rolling in, they needed a temporary home while we accumulate enough to make a blanket. My friend Stacey already had this covered and gifted this awesome bag for the blanket squares. Yes, I might have had a weepy moment then too ;)
I am thankful for all your help and support.
Much love,
