An Afghan For Ryleigh S.

Look at this adorable little girl!  This is Miss Ryleigh and her afghan!  As you can see, they are getting well acquainted!

When I ship off an afghan, I typically (unless I completely forget) include a couple of business cards and a postcard I had made for the T21 Traveling Afghan Project.  The postcard has a photo of Emmalee (my daughter) holding up the afghan.

Miss Ryleigh has decided she really likes Em and "talks" to her!  How stinkin' adorable is that?!?!

Just another example of the ties that bind, across the miles!

Enjoy, Miss Ryleigh!

Then and Now: Ashlyn

Do you remember sweet Miss Ashlyn from this post?

This was Ashlyn back in September of 2009 when she was battling cancer!





Well, you know what?? This is Ashlyn now! Look how amazing she looks!!

As you can see, she still loves her afghan!  You can follow Miss Ashlyn on her very own Facebook page!

Persephone's Family

Little Miss Perse has been signed up for the Traveling Afghan for two and a half years! She signed up very shortly after the project was started! Therefore, it is with great joy I share these photos of her loving it up!

An Afghan For Gabby H

Somehow, I missed adding photos of this beauty with her afghan, even though she was one of the first little kiddos to receive one!

This is Miss Gabby and afghan!

You can learn more about Gabby and her family on their blog, The Phamily Blog!

Keziah's Family

Keziah had a blast with the afghan!  Here's what her mom had to say!

Kizzy, who is 15, wrote in the book with the afghan herself. She put in this picture and the following one of herself with her boyfriend Tom at a dinner dance to celebrate his last day at school.

Kizzy attends a mainstream school and enjoys it very much. She loves chocolate, boy bands, short skirts, her handsome brother, Apple Macs, watching DVDs with subtitles and writing out the dialogue, cuddling her mum, dropping her clothes all over the floor, her brilliant inclusive drama group Total Ensemble, dancing and music.

She doesn't like: her mum moaning about her room, being told chocolate cake isn't a healthy breakfast, people "looking" at her, her brother switching channels on the TV and songs in the car all the time, cheese, going to sleep.

Her full name is Keziah Mary Akiko Baxter. She is very proud of the fact that she is a quarter Japanese.

Kizzy is just beautiful!  I'm glad she had such a good time with the afghan!

Che's Family

Che had the afghan, and as you can see, he shared it with one of his very best friends!

Thanks for taking such great care of the afghan, Che!

Keeley's Family

Five year old Keeley had a grand old time with the afghan!


Her mom said they felt so privileged to be part of this fantastic project!  As you can see, Keeley loves the afghan!  It was lovely and cuddly and perfect for a little lie down with her favorite hand puppets!

Thanks for taking such great care of the afghan, Keeley!

An Afghan For Grace H.

While I don't have photos of Miss Grace with her afghan, here is the one she received!

Rocky's Family

The ever adorable Rocky had the afghan for his week! And what a week it was!

Ethan's Family

Ethan's family has had quite a time with the afghan!  According to his mom, the afghan has had many cuddles, kept her babies safe and warm at night, hosted a few doll tea parties, been an amazing peek-a-boo blanket and was shown an incredible amount of love from Ethan and his sister, Georgia!

Georgia was quite enthralled by the afghan and its travels.  She took it to school for show and tell and told her friends and teacher all about the afghan!  Then she even did a Question and Answer session all about Down syndrome and her little brother!

What an amazing little advocate she is!

As always, the photos speak for themselves!

Ethan, Georgia and Jo, thank you for showing the afghan such a grand time!!

An Afghan For Mia

This is a memorial afghan for Miss Mia!

Erin's Family

Gemma's friend Erin was the next kiddo to get her turn with the afghan!

As you can see, it was love at first site!

Erin also lives in London!

Gemma's Family

Miss Gemma was one of the first kiddos to sign up for our project, so I'm so excited she finally got her turn!

Per her mum:

Gemma is 5 years old and lives in Mytchett in the Uk. She had a great week looking after the traveling afghan. She took it away on holiday for 5 days to a little holiday village called Pagham. During the day she took it out with her & sat on it whilst we had picnics & at night it kept her warm and snuggly. It has been lovely for Gemma to be part of the travelling afghan!

As you can see, Gemma and the afghan got along wonderfully!

What a beautiful little girl!  Thanks for hosting the afghan, Gemma!!

An Afghan For Nathan S

Beautiful Nathan has received his afghan!  This afghan spot was actually auctioned off to help raise money for the adoption of a kiddo with Down syndrome!  Nathan's family was the winner and here is the result!

And this adorable little guy is the blankets owner!  How stinkin' cute is he??

Another satisfied customer!  Ha ha!
