Photo-a-Day - July 2013 - Day 27: This Is New

Crocheting for charity is such an important aspect of my life.  It keeps me mindful that no matter now hard my life may be, there are millions of people whose problems are much worse then mine.

This is my newest blanket for Stitches from the Heart, a charity that donates baby items to over 1,400 NICU centers and hospitals around the country.  The items are given to family who often have nothing else nice for their baby beyond what they receive from us. 

I loved this pattern.  It's easy, quick, fluffy and completely reversible.  I'll even make a hat, or two, to go with it.  And then I'll make another in little boy colors.
