Thank You's

Another nice Thank You from Faith Mission for the last round of donations delivered.   Always such a pleasure to share with you all who make this possible.

And a few days ago Kari G from Homeless Families Foundation posted this lovely Thank You on Facebook which I wanted to share with you all.

There's a certain amount of love that goes into hand knitting and crocheting blankets, hats, mittens, scarves and dish towels for those in need and Sandy Holladay knows the value of these items. Through her blog Bridge and Beyond, http://homelessbridge.blogspot.com/, Sandy reaches out to others who make these items. She collects them, organizes them and then delivers them monthly
 to be delivered to children and families at The Homeless Families Foundation. We truly appreciate Sandy's dedication to helping homeless and at risk children and families feel cared for by providing these special handmade items. HFF thanks Sandy and all the wonderful crafters who contribute these beautiful items through Bridge and Beyond.


 Together, we all make a wonderful team.  I add my thanks to you all.

Where are You and Your Yarn From?

I'm trying to identify where everyone is from, partially for fun. Take a look at the map. Also, believe it will aid me in cases where we have several people with the same name. Please look at the lists of bloggers and non bloggers and see if I have the state you hail from. If not, please leave a comment and let me know.

Additionally, we've had help from Scotland, England, Germany Puerto Rico, Canada, and France! They don't appear on the map, but their help is still greatly appreciated.

Where The People Who Donate Come From, is your state represented?
