Gabriel

For the past year, my daughter and her family have been fostering a sweet little boy.  Tomorrow he goes home to his birth family, which is the way things should be.  We are all happy for him, and pray for the best for he and his family.

We also will miss him (especially my granddaughter who is his same age), and hope to stay in touch.  We didn't want to send him home empty handed so, in addition to lots of clothes and toys, I made this quilt especially for him.  It has his name appliqued in the corner, and is in bright primary colors, with airplanes flying around in some of the circles.  I think he is going to like it, and it is big enough to grow with him.


If you would like an uplift today, check out this wonderful blog by Stitchin' by the Lake.  She is working her way up to listing 1,000 blessings.  Some of the blessings on her list are sure to be your favorites too.

Happy Sewing♥
