Pretty, Colorful, Sweet and Warm Donation

Look how sweet this afghan is!  It's bright, cheery and adorable.  Thank you Maria T. R. from Texas for this awesome donation.  This afghan will work for a teen or adult female as a lapghan and or a prized possession for some little girl.  Whomever receives this will be smiling.

Thank you Maria and please keep up the good work!

This afghan like all our afghans will be donated through Homeless Families Foundations.

Here we are the 3rd day in April already.  Aprils focus will be scarves, but I'd also like to continue our focus on afghans and quilts.

Pretty and Practical Donations for Ohio's Homeless

Thank you Barbara F for this very thoughtful donation.  Cute headbands, and hat and a circle/mobius/infinity style scarf.  Very nice.  Barbara's also sent us some really nice plastic bags.  Look at the bag the yarn is in..These are zip locks, large ones with a handle.  These will be perfect for our afghans that are donated to Homeless Families Foundation.  A nice bag to carry them, to keep them clean, and to see them so when selections are made for family x y z, they can see the colors etc.  I think it bumps up our presentation a notch are too.  Many thanks for finding these Barbara.

And look how pretty the Lion Brand Homespun is.  I think I can probably get two scarves out of this....then again it might work well with some I  have on hand for ghan........hum, time will tell.  Rest assured it will get put to good use.

Please keep up the good work.
