The Blanket for jchocchip

Thank you so much for the lovely quilt, I really like the colours and the individual squares have so much work in. It arrived yesterday, whilst I was at work, though really wanting to be at the funeral of a very dear friend I met on mumsnet. So a strange day with very mixed feelings. I am looking forward to spreading the quilt out properly at the weekend, I will be cleaning the house and putting up my decorations and can guard it from the cat (!).

The good days are generally more numerous than the bad now, though odd little things still set me off. This Christmas feels more normal than last year when I think I was still taking it all in. Wishing a Happy Christmas and New Year to all, love Jane x

The blanket for Knittingnovice’s family

Day is Done

Gone the sun

From the trees, from the hills, from the sky

As we go, this we know

God is nigh.

The Good night, peaceful night

Till the light of dawn shineth bright

God is near, do not fear

Friend, good night.

 

Thinking of beautiful Knitting and her family. Love to them. xxx

The blanket for cathpip

This afternoon I have taken delivery of the most stunning blanket I have ever seen. My husband has been shocked into silence and believe me that rarely happens! The detail and skill that have gone into each square is amazing, you have summed up my daughter Pippa perfectly in every stitch. Pippas brothers are at this moment watching boomerang in their pjs snuggled underneath it. We as a family are so thankful to everybody who has donated or made squares towards this blanket, the kindness and generosity of so many has left us feeling very humble and quite teary. With kindest wishes Catherine xx
