LaRon's Quilt is done.

LaRon will be getting this for his birthday. It is a gift from his father who is in prison. Margaret's Hope Chest  is  an amazing group and I am grateful for it in my life. As someone who has suffered from abuse I have learned a lot about forgiveness and am still learning about forgiveness. When I make these blankets for these children who's parent or parents are in prison it helps me find more compassion for those who hurt others. Heavenly Father has brought this group and these opportunities to me personally and I am happy to help these kids.  

I think every blankie needs something soft (or cozy as we call it around here) on it, especially the back. I added the blue chenille fabric to the front and a lightweight blue flannel to the back (he lives in Georgia so I don't want him too hot). 

LaRon loves airplanes


Michael Miller donated some fabric for this too!
 Happy Birthday LaRon!
