They collected the kids' suggestions. When 20 suggestions came, Lucy didn't just choose one. She met all of their needs! She has already made more than 800 blankets for kids in countries. Her favourite part is learning about each child. “I love hearing their stories and getting to know them，” she says. She tries to design styles according to the children's interests.
