Hello! My name is Alisa Erkes. Here are few things about me:
- I have Behcet's Disease, a very rare autoimmune disease that attacks blood vessels throughout the body. If blood flows to it, my immune system can think it is an invader an attack it. Right now it has damaged the major artery in my abdomen, my heart, some of my joints, my digestive tract, and my eyes.
- I have a precious fur baby, my service dog Bentley. He loves to cuddle and get lots of love from mommy! :)
How do I create my blankets? All of my blankets are made without a pattern or strict design. I come up with the color schemes from inspiration from other items like clothing, murals, etc. Once I have decided on a color scheme I create it from my own pattern. No two afghans I make are exactly alike; you are getting a one of a kind item!
I hope to make lots of blankets in the coming months to share with others like me. I hope to even donate blankets to organizations that can give them to others who are sick to give them comfort in hard times. It means a lot to me to help others like myself in this situation.
