Each square represents an &#8220;intention&#8221; for a particular person. I sew the tiny square of paper onto a backing. &nbsp;Each square is held by two stitches knotted at the back and I write the first name and last initial next to the stitches. The stitching isn&#8217;t perfect. The squares aren&#8217;t all lined up. Some of the names are squiggly. But seen all together, there is a beautiful pattern and story that is not of my making. It&#8217;s all held together by people&#8217;s generosity to bless, to wish well to others. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>There is still room if you would like to add to the blanket. You can send me their names by &nbsp;commenting on this post, or by email at sunnymarlene@sasktel.
