Donations help to Warm Cold Feet

Thank you Dorothy M for this wonderful donations of knitted slippers, socks, and hand/feet warmers.  I love the nice variety in colors and sizes in your slippers.  Thank you too for tagging them with size...I love it when people do that and so do the various shelters who receive our donations.

Cold feet make people miserable so slippers and socks are always a welcome site when I make delivers at Homeless Families Foundation, Faith Mission and so forth.

Please keep up the good work Dorothy!

    You blog makes me happy. First of all the colorful donations are awesome beyond words. More than that it's the loving hearts and hands that move beyond their own busy lives to help others that they don't even know and will never understand.

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?
