Donations from Barbara F

Apologies if you made it here this am, before I got the post finishef folks.  I had the picture and the count and a note to myself to finish the post.  Barbara F has donated a vareit of hat styles, please click to enlarge the picture so you can see the details better.  Different sizes, different colors and different styles.  She's also donated scarves and cotton washcloths.

Many thanks Barbara, please keep up the good work.

As I edit this post, it's snowing......yes AGAIN!  It's currently 23 degrees, but feels like it's 13.  I've been lucky enough to escape the cold and snow for a bit, traveled with hubby for business and then we added a few days at the end of business to relax and it was so nice to be where there was nice weather.  The snow mounds from plows etc are now about 4 feet high here to give you a feel fr the amount of snow that's piled up.  

Please keep the homelss, and those without proper heat living on the edge during this very difficult time of year in your thoughts and prayers and do what you can with your needles and hooks.  They don't really have a way to escape the conditons.
**Stay tuned for donations from: Karen J from Illinois, Sandra R from Florida,  B. Torio from Ohio, Brenda H from Texas, and Sue F from Ohio.

  1. Thanks Barbara for the lovely selection of hats and scarves. They are much needed in this winter we are having. No let up in sight for most of the country. We are in line for another 6 inches of snow here in Minnesota tonight. Enough already! Your gifts will be needed to complete the rest of the winter. They keep saying spring is a month away, but i have my doubts. Thanks again, and GOOD JOB.

  3. Very nice donation Barbara! The hats look so warm. Here in MI, we had some snow over night. We are to get more tomorrow. At least it is in the mid 20's this afternoon, but it is to be down to 4 tonight.

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?
