These are the squares that will create Ari's blanket of love. Tonya lovingly binds these squares together with a photo of Kelly in sight and Ari in her mind.
Each square was created by mama's with such love and care for Ari and in loving memory of his dear mama and our beautiful friend Kelly.
.: If you see your square here and feel moved to share sentiments surrounding it for Ari, please feel free to do so in the comments. Thank you. :.

.: For those of you who are crafting for either Wellness Tree project or are new to this space I would like to make it known that like the last (ornament) project, each gift that comes in will be documented here in this space. This proved to be a vital ingredient of the nurturing and healing mission of these projects. Documenting these projects also proved in the past to be a very strong, supportive experience and tool. I wish to continue this for Kelly's family and for all of us visiting here. :.
.: These are blanket squares that have already been mailed in, if one of them was made by you please take a moment on this post to share who you are with any sentiments surrounding your square :.

I will photograph and blog your gift here in this space as it comes in the mail so that Kelly's immediate and extended family can see and feel this love and document it for their future memories.
