What a beautiful tradition. May your sorrows be less and less each year. Love your gifts and the thread catcher is to die for. Great job. Love to you and yours during this Christmas season.
Love the fabric in your thread catcher bag. I have never in my life heard of a grave blanket. Is this some kind of family tradition? I think it is nice that you gather to remember though. :-)

Sandy, A grave blanket is a large evergreen spray decorated with bows, pine cones, articifical pointsetters, etc. and many people put them over the graves of family members in the Winter instead of flowers. I found an online photo to show you but they can be decorated in anyway you like. I prefer simple decorations such as white twigs and pine cones attached to the evergreen but some may prefer big bows and lots of attachments.
