Josiah's Blankie

                                           "JMSQ "Copyright © 2011

                           Josiah is Hebrew - meaning - "The Lord saves"

This blankie is perfect for covering your baby in their car seat, or over your baby in their bassinett. These are also perfect for giving to the elderly to cover their legs when sitting in chairs just relaxing.
I like to lay them over my chest while reading, I feel both the warmth as well as the many prayers being said while knitting away...JMSQ
