Voice for Children Donation

Voices for Children is a local organization which seeks to provide a stable adult to accompany a child through the court system and foster placement service. They will be holding a silent auction to raise money and awareness on March 7. Several firefighters in College Station got together and made a fire fighter "dollhouse" to be auctioned and I made this blanket to go along with it. Although it was made with the intention of going with the dollhouse, as of now the blanket it a separate lot and will be auctioned off by itself.

I hope that the blanket helps to raise some money for a very worthy cause.

Gift for Great-Grandma KiKi

I made this blanket for my Texas Grandma, Ms. Kathy Knight. The vibrant colors of the flowers made me think of her immediately when I saw the fleece. Although Kathy may have entered our lives as our realtor, she found a place in our hearts and has become a dear friend and an "adopted" grandma.

I'm hoping that this blanket will lift her spirits and keep her cozy with warm thoughts & memories of her time with me & my family until we can visit again.
