Going out on a limb!!


So today I finally made a decision on something that I've been debating for months!

I decided to have a special donation extravaganza for my company where I donate a blanket to charity for each one that is purchased this next month. Whoa going public... I know... not typically Kimberly. Well I had to make the decision to have the possibility of making service blankets and donating them next year too. I have really enjoyed the quilts and blankets that I've made... with the help of many of you THANK YOU... that have been donated and will be able to be donate by the end of the year. I can't imagine waiting until John is out of school before I can do it again. My hope is that this way I may be able continue and make more next year!! I guess we'll see... to see exactly what I'm doing visit my KNH Designs Blog and then let me know if you think I'm crazy... I might just agree with you!!

Our Service Quilts are finished... on to the blankets!

I finally got the other two full service quilts bound and finished!! All four of them along with a couple of receiving blankets were dropped off this week heading for the LDS Humanitarian Department with the hopes that they will bless the lives of others somewhere. Again thanks to friends and family who donated your time to help me tie them all and share in the joy of service. I do need to apologize that I don't have pictures of the final products to put up. I got so excited about getting them dropped off that I didn't remember the photos until they were boxed up and taped shut. Next time I will have to take pictures of the process too so you can all see yourselves.

On to my next service projects. I still have about twenty more receiving blankets I hope to sew and have donated by Thanksgiving and if everything goes well with my website and Etsy shop, I'll be able to buy more for next year's donations!
