Thank you from Reece and his Mom

Reece and I made it to our first River Spinners Guild meeting together on January 5 although it was for just a short while. The guild got together and made this very special blanket made up of knit, crochet, and woven blocks all with love - all for Reece.

Reece thinks it is really great that so many talented people love him - he wants you all to know he always feels wrapped in love. Thank you!

With love and gratitude,
Reece and Mommy (Elizabeth)
