Breezing to Assistance!

 Always one to assist when I can with functions or more importantly, giving from my heart gifts made with my hands.  I came across these events recently that will allow me to work with my hands and heart to give some much needed love to communities in need.

Missouri Star Quilt Blog has a list of quest for children needs--
 is just one of many listed on their blog--I for one have way too many
quilts--so these opportunities give me a chance to pass along some
love.  check out the blog for further info.

Hats For Sailors is another chance to give your hand knit or crocheted hats
to sailors.  Photo above is hats donated in 2020.  Each year a different ship is
chosen. "OUR SHIP THIS YEAR IS A CARRIER AND OUR GOAL IS OVER 6000 HATS!!!  THAT IS MORE THAN 3 TIMES WHAT WE HAVE DONE IN THE PAST.  IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN CONTRIBUTING, PLEASE EMAIL US AT HATSFORSAILORS@GMAIL.COM "

Any pattern can be used--preferred is 100% washable wool.  Check out patterns on their website
