[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Successful Saturday

Sun Nov 19 15:40:22 UTC 2023

In a couple of weeks from now, one of the Yarn Angels will be stopping by to pick up this years collection of hats and scarves that Terry and I have made for the Homeless Shelters.
Terry and I are already hard at work on making hats and scarves for next years donations too.s

Many years ago, my snack bar had a box, to donate hats for the Red Cross!
I brought some of my home made hats!
I wouldn't be surprised if mine were not the only, hand made, donated!

Thank you for all your amazing efforts!  That is great the boxes were blessed. 

Our work is collecting toys for a local food bank. I brought 3 toys for the collections.
