Wow, I can't tell you how floored I was when I saw this post over at Monica's Happy Zombie blog. Yippee, I won her drawing that both was a blogebration and also was an excuse to convince Karen Snyder that she really needs to start a blog. So today this heavy manila envelope made its way to my house ... ah, so much fun to get mail. And look, Karen even signed it for me! She has beautiful penmanship. Gotta love all the swirly action.
What's even better is that I have quite a few baby quilts that need to be made. One is for my cousin who's due sometime in June and the other two are for two very special twin boys - sons of Steve's cousin. They made their entrance into this world December 24th (I'm pretty sure) but much, much too early. So they'll have to stay at the hospital for quite a long time. But since they've survived this long they are no longer considered critical. I think that the mom needs to have something to hold on to while she visits with the boys in the neonatal ICU. And two little quilts may be just the thing.
