This is a card I made for a friend who has been diagnosed with stage 1 breast cancer and is to have a lumpectomy early this week. With luck it will be there for her when she gets home from hospital.

This one is a repeat of Mabel's June SAL with the idea it might make nice Christmas cards - if it doesn't get used before then. :)

Thanks for looking.

Thank you for the message about the owl. It is great to see he has been used and hopefully will be well received :D
I also love your angel, that is a beautiful piece of stitching and a work of art to be treasured.

An update on Angel with 1 sleeve done - thank goodness. 5 different blues plus 2 blue blends and the inner sleeve has 3 colour changes - a veritable breeze.
