I went to the Hokie Healing Project sew together event today and helped 7 other ladies make a blanket for a shooting victims family. We had a great day, the finished blanket was lovely. When we arrived, we were given a bag that had 62 donated squares in it. We laid them out on the floor and arranged and re-arranged them till we were happy with the design and then started sewing, we each had a row, sewed them together, then started sewing the rows together. We had a wonderful blanket when we were done four hours later. All finished blankets were displayed in the hall area, they were beautiful.
I was glad to be part of something so meaningful, and I hope this blanket brings some comfort to the family who receives it. I will try to get a picture posted soon.....
