A Favor For Mom

 
Hannah
she must know my sister and her husband
are planning to visit
Ohio without her next week
 
she is the softest cat ever
 

 
I have a few extra days off this week
challenging myself to do something fun
 
these two images from Pinterest
inspired me to create a small
Valentine piece...
 
will share photos as it develops...
 
 
 
Everything is going fine with Mom
it's been 7 weeks and she is healing nicely
4 more weeks until she can
start weight bearing...
 
her spirits are low...
she is so discouraged about staying
at the facility so long
 
so I'm asking a big favor
I'd like to shower her with cards
and maybe a square or strip of quilt fabric inside...

Thank you in advance...
nothing other than going home
can make her as happy as a piece of fabric!

    What a great idea. I don't have a fabric stash (wool is another story!) but I did find something to send.
