Confirmation

     I made my first hat a few weeks before Madie passed away.  When she gave me her pattern, the instruction that came with it said for me to call her and she would walk me through putting it together.  I knew she wasn't feeling well, so I didn't want to bother her and just made it on my own.  I sent her a picture of my friend wearing the hat, so she knows I did it.  But, I wasn't sure if I was making it the same way she did it.  Hers were always so awesome!  
     Thursday, I received a box of her sewing accessories and well as a few of her hats.  It was very emotional for me to go through her sewing crafts and I treasure all of it because it was hers and she loved sewing with a passion!  I am blessed to have had such a wonderful step-mom!  Once I looked over the hats that she made, I found that I am making them correctly (except for one minor detail).  Her pattern was also enclosed.  
     It's been almost 2 months and it seems like a bad dream.  When I think of her, she looks so great.  I am blessed to have great memories!   
More Madelyn Hats are in progress!!

More Madelyn Hats...

I have been working on more hats in my spare time!  I have two blue tye-dye and one pink and khaki finished. Pictures to come!   My next shipment will have 12 hats.  Looking forward to attaching the nice new tags and getting them out.  I'm not 100% sure where they will be going, possibly MD Anderson.  That is where Madie received most of her treatment.  It's hard to believe it's been 33 days since she passed away!
