I woke this morning with an idea for the weighted blankets that Jeanette brought to us to make for special needs kids. Well, if you remember, I did make two lap quilts but they were not done correctly. So yesterday at church, Jeanette brought in a weighted blanket for me to see. Then at the lovely hour of 3am, I had a thought which brought me out to the studio at 6:30am. I am thrilled to say I completed a blanket, crib size and it went much easier than I had expected. Here it is.
Of course, it needs to be approved but I went ahead and wrote a little tutorial for it, just in case it's right!
The fabrics are from my stash because the fabrics they gave Jeanette are, well, yucky. I know these don't match but I just needed to try it first. I think it is alot like the one she brought me without a carrying strap. If it is right, I will come up with a tutorial for the smaller lap quilts and share that with you all.
Also, Jeanette is heading up the visitations/deliveries so be sure to let her know if/when you can participate. Thank you Jeanette!
Also, watch the yard sales for fiberfill! And if you find yourself with a little extra time and would like to sew some binding and labels on some quilts or bibs, let me know. I make deliveries! LOL
Please keep Doris and her family in your prayers. They are facing some tough stuff right now. Peggy, I hope you are doing better too and would love to see you next month at the meeting.
Have a wonderful week everyone and know that you are an important part of this group and it's ministry.
