I finally found the time to sort and document and pack the items we have finished so far this year. Usually, these days, we do not distribute these until October, except for the VA lapghans which can be any time. These are from 2 gals who work from home. One has lots of time to crochet and the other, bless her heart, is having more and more troubles with crocheting.
The first photo is what Louise, my long-time gal for over 15 years, brought me earlier this year. She has now pretty much stopped crocheting for charity and tries to do some things for her family and loved ones but she has trigger finger issues and arthritis issues. We are so happy to at least received these from her:
Louise 1 baby blanket, 5 prs gloves
The second photo are the things the gal with lots of time turned in, 2 weeks ago, Rosemary. We were pleased when she began contributing to the group.
Rosemary 9 baby blankets, 2 VA lapghans, 3 scarves, 1 baby jacket, baby hats 6, homeless hats 2, gloves 2pr
I should also mention that in March we were happily able to have Louise and her hubby George take 18 lap covers to a VA facility.
Distribution to VA: 18 lap covers 3/27/24
At the moment, I now have 2 fat bags of baby blankets in the closet for later distribution, and some smaller bags with sorted items.
Most of our ladies are working from home these days but we are still rolling along...
