Thursday afternoon I was sitting here, feeling all sorry for myself, when the DHL delivery truck rolls up. And what did the nice delivery guy hand me? A box which contained these:
Cindy, who organized the Sampler Afghan-along (SAL for short) – that I’ve been guiltily ignoring for the past few months – got a bunch of SAL-ies together to make a baby afghan for the pumpkin child. How neat!
There are blocks from Siow Chin in Hong Kong, Sylvie in France, and Amy, Carrie, Cindy and Laura, all from the US. You can’t see it in the picture, but the pillow has French horn fabric on the back – too cool! And Cindy sewed the adorable doll.
Thanks, ladies! What a wonderful thing to do. I can’t wait to explain to the baby all about her international afghan!
Hope you like the blankie. And best of luck for the delivery!
Sarah,
I’m so glad you were totally surprised! Yes, the little one has been thought of with every stitch! I did the pillow square which turned out so nicely…..Cindy’s doll is just adorable….each and every square is so lovely! Enjoy and much happiness to all of you! :<)
