Sharing the Love Through Donations

**because I don't have a picture of the donation to share with you, thought I'd leave you this cute cartoon I saw on facebook, hope it makes you smile**


Thank you Kathy V from West Virginia for your thoughtful donation.  I'm sorry to report folks, I don't seem to have a picture of her donation.  I'm unsure if I forgot to take a picture before sorting and bagging to get ready for distribution...OR her picture didn't make the transfer from my camera to the computer.  Kathy's donation was one of the large number I worked on after the special delivery from The Post Office after returning from my travels.   

 My apologizes Kathy for not being able to show off your work.  She donated scarves, some personal care items, and a hat according to my notes.  Please keep up the good work.

Since February is a month to think about love, let's spread the love by finding new pairs of helping hands.  If everyone could find one friend, one co-worker, one blogger, one family member, and or one Facebook/Ravelry friend to bring into the fold think about how much more love we could spread by way of our warm knitted, crocheted, loomed, and or quilted items!  Talk us up.  Some folks might like to help us, but be unaware of what we do.  Please search someone out.  Who do you know?

    Hi Kathy! Thanks so much for your thoughtful donations. I am sure your hat will be just right for a head in need as will the scarves for keeping some necks cozy and warm. The personal care items are always in demand. So keep your needles flying and hope to see you here again soon!

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?
