Fleece blankets

Last month the absolute saddest thing imaginable happened to some of our friends, their 4 year old daughter, Mia, went to live with Heavenly Father.  She was Aida's best friend, they had so much fun together, I'll post some pictures another day.  We organized a Relief Society activity to honor her memory, we made fleece blankets for Primary Children's Hospital.  It was such a beautiful thing to see the sisters come together to remember sweet sweet Mia.  There were about 40 sisters there and we did 50 blankets.  It was a great night.

I had all the blankets layed out to take a picture for Mimi, Mia's mom, and Hailey of course wanted to make one herself.

Here is her blanket in progress, luckily I had a small piece of fleece left over from a project a few years ago.

Hailey is going to be a great sewer/crafter some day following in the footsteps of most of the women on both sides of her family.

  1. It's so heartbreaking what happened to Hailey's friend, but what a wonderful thing you all did for other kids with those blankets.
