Tree of Life Square. This became the center square of a blanket, given to the families involved in the bombing of the TOL Synagogue October 2018. My aunts best friend, lost both of her sons in the bombing. The half of the "tree" represents the one son, and when joined, completes the tree. Knitting each half separately, was intentional.

Over 1,000 squares were donated, with 50 blankets made. This blanket, with my TOL square, went to the mother of the 2 sons who were killed.
