I've started on a new labor of love today. I'll be spending the next little while with a good friend of mine. This is the second time I have had the honor of making bears to remember someone I love deeply. I consider it an extra special blessing to be able to spend time thinking about them while I plan and build. I could have started a couple of weeks ago, but honestly I needed to ready my heart. I'm there now, so here we go. Let the memories roll.

Remembering those who fought to preserve our freedom and made the ultimate sacrifice in service to this great country.

Hoodies: The uncomely parts.
I was asked to make a blanket for the hoodies owner's dog. There weren't any unworn, or unstained bits left to work with after making the bears and repairing one. So, I used pockets with holes and opened up hem binding to make strips between the two ends, and two small pieces of an arm that I had left to make one end as wide as the other. It has pieces from all 4 of the hoodies. It measures only 23 x 38 inches. It isn't beautiful, but I don't think the dog will mind.
