My blanket has just arrived I am just blown away – it is stunning. Each and every square is gorgeous, I wish I was as talented.I can’t wait to show the rest of the family when they get home,it is true when you say you can feel the love in it.
….can I just say a very heartfelt and massive thank you to everybody who contributed in any way to our amazing TeamSurvival Woolly Hug. It is a work of art and a thing of true beauty. The boys and I have been loving sitting under it and keep finding new things every time. There are a lot of ‘Wow!”s and “Looook!”s!! I will try and add a photo that I have taken of the boys sitting under it. I promise that we will treasure it always. It is a very positive thing to have come out of our difficulties and is lovely to know that so many people have thought of us during its creation.
Thank you, from all three of us.xx

Welsh born MrD was a horticulturalist, he loved all flowers, particularly spring flowers, sweet peas and roses, he also loved spots and stripes. The link to daisydotandgertie’s original thread is here. Thinking of her beloved DH X
Thank you all so, so much.
My woolly hug arrived yesterday and I have alternated between being in floods of tears and feeling very comforted ever since.
It is the most beautiful thing – love just oozes out of every inch of it and the talent that has gone into making it is incredible. I wish I could show it to MrD – he would love it. The detail, the flowers, the Labradors and the sheep! The stripes and spots and just plain cleverness are glorious.
I wish I’d been strong enough to come on here yesterday and thank you all, but I wasn’t. I can’t articulate how much comfort this woolly thing has given me – something created by strangers who made the time to support me. I am moved beyond words and am very, very honoured to have it.
Thank you. Daisy xx

” Oh, I can’t tell you how moved I am by this amazing gift, how pretty it is, and how warm I am snuggled up under it 😀 it seems even more extraordinary now that I’m just sitting at home, in my usual everyday place on the sofa, yet I’m the astonishingly lucky owner of this wonderful present. I’m very slow at coming to terms with deeply emotional events, like this afternoon has been for me, and it takes me a time to ‘process’ things, I just don’t have any words because I was/am so thrilled and deeply moved by all your kindness.
I have shown many of my friends photos of my blanket, and they have all gasped! The universal feeling is that it is thing of true beauty, both physical and for the love woven into it. Well, last night, for the first night this year, I was warm and very cosy in my bed, and slept peacefully and deeply like a child. And, of course, I woke up and the first thing I could see were the gorgeous colours around me. I can feel the love and comfort woven into every square, I really can!” with loads of love, Lemontruffles xxx
