what I can do…

Filed under: Sewing — admin at 3:16 pm on Thursday, May 11, 2006

My family has received the sad news that my Grandma has cancer. Without going into too much detail, I’d like to share what I made for my mom and my sweet Grandma. I salute them for being the ones that have taught me to love my own kids…

Working with my hands has always been very therapeutic. So when I received word that my Grandma’s surgery did not go as well as planned, I had to get busy. They may not be perfect, but there is so much love in these two “lap blankets”. Hopefully these two ladies will feel the love from me and know that their warmth is for comfort and rest.

Anyway, that’s all for now…

I’m so sorry, sweet Carol. Would you email me your Grandma’s first name so I can keep her in my humble prayers?

Thanks for sharing. We will be praying for your grandma and your mom, and for you three sisters… What a rich heritage you have from your grandma! I am sure your lovely blankets will be a special reminder of your love and honor for both your mom, and her mom. You are a blessing to them, I am sure!
