Handwork for Charity!

"Cry with someone.....It's more healing than crying alone"  Life Lessons According to Regina


There was several yards of flannel bought on sale.  It was time to work on the charity baby blankets.  



Once I cut the two squares for blanket, I have about 1/8 yard left, so I cut 6" squares and use them to make nine patch blocks.

One down!   I do a blanket stitches around the edges after sewing two 45" squares, wrong side together, leaving an opening go and turn right sides out.  

Two more to do--good hand work while waiting!
