June 2021 Large Size Throw in blue and gold

 This is a large throw size we put together amazingly in 10 days.  Deanna, my friend, pictured on the left proposed the project to me.  One of the sisters at church has been diagnosed with cancer and will be having treatments and eventually surgery.  This sister is devoted to Relief Society, has taught classes for years, and whenever there was a special dinner or a visiting General Authority, she was called on to plan and provide dinners.  Deanna texted and emailed every sister at church, asking them to find a scripture, a saying, or drawing for a white square we'd provide.  A lot of good response.  Deanna crafted a pattern using gold and blue and the white squares.  She was the one who made sure everyone was contacted, she collected many, but most sisters brought their squares to me.  I sewed them together in 2 days, then quilted in another day and a half,.  Deanna came over on Saturday and we sat knee to knee, stitching the binding.  I never would have finished it in time alone.  It was ready to give to our sister on Sunday at her house.  She was crying, very touched.  She will use it to comfort her as she has her treatments.  We pray she'll be okay.
