BLOCK INSTRUCTIONS : For Grandparents raising Grandchildren:
On a piece of fabric 14" X 14" you need to trace one of your hands and write your
first and last name in the palm. If you have a spouse they too will need to trace
one of their hands with their first and last name in the palm. Then have each
grandchild trace one of his/her hands and write only their first name in the palm.
You may use an assumed name or just whatever your grandchildren call you:
grandma,nana, Baba,etc!
Submit your creation of love, as soon as possible, so I have them in plenty of time to sew the blocks together and completed on time.
This showpiece is something we can all do, to highlight the need for protection of the rights for our families and our children. We would love to have all the grand's participate in this special project.
