| I'm particularly pleased with the corners and diagonal lines. |

| J has just had a look, and when I asked him if he thought Stacie would like it, he said "no, she won't like it, she will just love it!"  |

| The blanket has been posted, along with a blanket for Ieuan, a pink hedgehog and a beautiful paper cut card made by mylastrolo, containing a poem by Lady Sue. May's blanket has also been finished and posted by Pea. If anybody would like to contribute towards postage my paypal is crocheting crow at live dot co dot uk (no spaces/proper punctuation etc) Any remaining funds I'll forward on to Jen who is making MJ a beautiful silver bracelet to contribute towards materials. I hope this is okay with everyone. I feel somewhat bereft - I've lived, breathed, dreamt that blanket for the last two months - however two months worth of housework is now calling me... Thank you everybody who has been part of this. BaBsland really is a lovely place.  |

| For those of you not on Facebook:
I've adapted a poem that I thought may accompany our blanket ....
It's amazing what a BAB's crochet hug can do.
It can cheer you up when you are feeling blue.
This blanket has been stitched with laughter, love, many drinks
And made especially for you from your friends, the ladies in pink
It's threaded with gin, vodka, tears and prayers
And fastened tight with wine, giggles and swears
This hug is sent to help soothe your pain,
and bring forth the rainbow after the rain.
A booby BABs hug! There's just no doubt about it-
Why on earth should you be without it?
A hug delights and warms, it's fab!
Sent straight to you with strength and love of BABs.
A hug can turn darkness into light
This BAB's blanket hug sent to help in your fight.
Read through the threads with joy and glee,
Because we came together for you, you see!
So snuggle in it without delay
and imagine us right beside you today! |
