I am a member of a group of slow stitchers who collaborate on textile projects.
Nanacathy is also a member.
Last year we made a card for someone we knew, who had been going through a difficult time. Each one of us made a twinchie (two inch square piece of decorated textile). Colour and design was not specified. Many of us were moved to create hearts and we packed a lot of love into that card
The piece of vintage blanket in the middle was there to give a feeling of cosiness – a virtual hug
and created pockets for messages, cards and of course chocolate.
I am sending the sentiment and the hugs to each and every one of you who read this blog – becoming companions in a wonderfully inspiring supportive community.
❤ THANK YOU ❤
and
HAPPY VALENTINES DAY
What a lovely gesture from amongst your stitching community, Sandra. I am sure your friend will have been deeply touched
