From Tywla: Our blankets were presented to the Lafayette Police Chief Bashor and Commander Sellers by Mary Farnan today! (Pictures above taken by Carol Sellers) Mary gave them a copy of the post about the beginning of the project so they would know about the significance of tens in the pattern. We also gave them a card with the names of the ten who lost their lives at the King Soopers. They were glad to see them clean and individually bagged too. They said these would be used for those in need and they were so appreciative of our efforts. Note from me: Thanks to everyone who contributed to this project! The police will give the blankets to people in situations where a blanket can provide some comfort. Your squares made 3 large patchwork blankets, and there were 2 smaller blankets as well. I'm happy to keep the project going. You are welcome to keep making and contributing squares (rectangles), and I'll keep joining them up and passing them on to Twyla and Mary....
