Good Morning!
I forgot that I had promised my friend Lisa that I would make squares for her family members who had breast cancer. I got them finished just in time to pop all of the in the mail ON TIME! Woo hoo! Thank goodness for the Leap Day! HA!
Here are the 3 I did for her. Her Mom, Grandmother and Aunt all had breast cancer, so it was very fitting that they be included as well! I wanted them to be related, but different, so I used butterflies and silk ribbon embroidery to tie them together.
And here is a picture of all 7 of my squares:
I am so thankful to have been a part of this project, and I can't wait to see the finished doll! To see more of the squares that other folks have made, visit the "Girl Gone Thread Wild" link on the right of my blog!
Have a wonderful Leap Day!

Hi Puddleducks...
Hey those art squares are beautiful hon! You didn't show me those!
How's the big baby doing? Give him a kiss on his nose for me okay?
BTW...is that Garth Brooks? I can't make out who the other one is... How about some Montgomery Gentry or Brooks and Dunn? How the heck to you get music on your blog? I tried to change the background on mine. Nada..wouldn't work even on the site you sent me... What a crock!
Beautiful just beautiful! The way artists have come together here to honor loved ones has instilled in me a great gratitude for LIFE. I'm moved by your post & contributions.. thank you so very much for this post & for giving from your heart what you made with your hands! I truly believe our loved ones are looking down on us and guiding our hearts. I'll let you know when your LOVEly squares have arrived. Love & blessings my friend, Monica
