New Blanket Project!

Remember the 15 inch blankets that I made patterns from :) My dear friend Danita would like to do something similar. She is all about colors too...so she has it wide open in terms of what colors you would like. Blanket sizes will vary. 

Here's a blanket she did for Sage :) 

Did you sign up last time? No problem you can do it again!

Danita's Blanket Project

Donation Sent! - Angel Blankets - 36 wraps & diaper sets

I sent out these pretty Lay Me Down wraps and diaper sets to a great organization that works with hospitals across the state. Angel Blankets is a wonderful organization that sends out blankets to bereaved parents of little babies. It's all done in memory of her special little girl Landyn. You can help, request or just stop in to say hi here's her webpage link:

Angel Blankets

This donation came with alot of help from a dear friend of mine. Without Danita's help I think I would still be sewing. She spent days sewing, trimming and turning with me to get this done along with another hospital donation that I will be happening soon. Thank you Danita!

Now on to the pretty sets we sent!

24-30 weeks

18-23 weeks

14-18 weeks

 Each photos shows only 10, I tossed in two more of each size when I discovered I had some extra and because she's been waiting for so long! Sorry!
