Sewing Felted Mittens Aids the Homeless

YIPPEE!!  Can you see me clapping for mittens?  Darlene H has some serious sewing skills folks.  These mittens are sewn from what I believe to be double thickness soft warm felt.  These are all sized larged which is perfect for our men living out in the elements.  AND being black is wonderful as well to not show the dirt.  She's also included 2 felt scarves and 3 knitted hats.  Awesome donation.

Many thanks for making this special delivery right to my house Darlene.
