Hi, it’s Malia again with an update on our first Mali blanket. I was so excited when we received the pictures of the mom and baby who were given the blanket. Here is a small part of the email we received:
Lynn Holt, team leader for Mali trip emailed us with details of the blankets journey. “When we arrived in Koutiala, Martha, the midwife told me that the Mayor of Koutiala's daughter had just delivered her baby at the Women's and Children's hospital the day before.
She (the midwife) thought it would be a great testimony if we gave the quilt to her. As you can see in the pictures, we read her your note, showed her the picture you sent, and swaddled the baby in the quilt. We also went back the next day before she left and took the last picture. ”
I was so encouraged by these pictures of the little baby swaddled in the blanket and by the smile on the mom’s face. I am encouraged to continue making more blankets.
