One more week left in February for our focus on feet (slippers and socks).  Next month is March.  Where has time gone?  March focus will be Afghans& Quilts (knitted, crocheted and Quilts), and rain ponchos.  Rain poncho's are a wonderful way to try and keep someone warm and dry, and a great item to donate for our non crafters.  Spread the word.


All donations regardless of size and number are valued. All donations are appreciated. The Power of One is awesome, and when we work together The Power of One becomes The Power of Many.
