Cariad Anfarwol : Love Everlasting

Lemon’s original Woolly Hug thread is here

” 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

‘A life filled with love is a life worth living.’

I wanted to let you know that the parcel arrived about an hour ago. The girls and I have been mesmerised by the Woolly Hug since opening it. So many beautiful squares, we can’t begin to choose favourites. It’s truly a work of art. I have read through the cards and am processing the kindness of strangers.

I still post on MN from time to time, but under another name. I shall always be thankful for the friends I made there. Love and thanks being sent your way xxx

I’ve just received the most beautiful blanket I have ever seen.My husband and I and overwhelmed with the kindness,love and effort that has gone into this blanket for Dexter. Thank you, J and family xxxx

Our original thread may be found here.

Many of us followed Aillidh’s journey, our hearts touched by this brave and beautiful little girl. She will live long in our memories. Our hearts and thoughts are with Aillidh, Expat and their family.

As part of this project, we also made a blanket for Giraffescantdance. Since Aillidh’s diagnosis, Giraffes has been a constant support and the most remarkable friend to Expat. She has walked this journey beside her and continues to do so, sadly understanding it only too well as she, like Expat, has experienced the devastating loss of a beloved daughter. Our thoughts are with her, as well as our thanks.  We hope that the blankets may give whatever comfort they can to them all. The original thread is here

“Thank you ladies, I am humbled that strangers felt so inspired by my words and ramblings. You have made me cry with your love and support, but they are ‘good’ tears for once. You are all so amazing and wonderful, not to mention talented. Thank you seems inadequate but I honestly can’t think of a bigger word to use.”
