Guardian Angel for Tristyn

I made a Guardian Angel for my granddaughter Tristyn. I gave it to her a couple days before she had the surgery to repair her lip. I wrote a saying about Guardian Angels on the back of it and wrote a message inside a card. Then I made a special little fabric envelope to keep the card and angel in.



It seems to me that there are times in all our lives when we need to know that someone cares and is watching over us. This is small enough that she can take it with her for all of her surgeries. She will be facing another surgery in a few months when she is 10 months old to repair her cleft palate. She can also take it out whenever she needs a little comfort when she's old enough to understand that.



These little angels are wonderful in a grouping. They would be nice on a Christmas tree or as a garland across a mantel. In my case I also like to make them and give them as little gifts when someone I know needs a little encouragement. I'm giving one to a friend whose husband was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer. It only takes a few hours to stitch one. Finishing them with a backing and batting takes no time at all.
