A very sweet friend of mine, Sandi, knitted this beautiful pink blanket for an orphan baby. I am so overwhelmed at the love knitted into this. Thank you Sandi! You are an Angel and a perfect example of doing, instead of just thinking about doing. When I told Sandi that I was taking 200 blankets to Zimbabwe for the orphan newborns, two blankets to a kit, she said, "well I have lots of yarn, and plenty of time!"
So often, when I am thinking of taking care of millions of children, I think of the quickest way to accomplish a lot. Making mass quantities of receiving blankets from flannel and serging the edges, is an example. It is so wonderful when I meet someone like Sandi who will help me. I never want an orphan to be another "project", they are babies, children, souls, people and every single one deserves the love that is infused in this beautiful blanket.
Sandi, I will wrap the first little girl we rescue in this shawl and kiss her little face and she will be named for you. Thank you.
