The times I've tried sewing, the machine ran away from me. However, I do make coasters and now I've branched into tile magnets. Although I"m not sure how those would work for charity.

I wish I knew how to sew, but I'm hopeless in that regard. However, I'm learning to knit and just picked up enough yard to knit 2 baby blankets for charity. I hope I know enough about knitting to do a whole baby blanket because all I've ever knitted is scarves...

Our Heart & Hands group is making little blankies and other small items for the NICU at Parkview in Fort Wayne. Our bigger blankets go to a women's shelter (moms and their kids live there and the moms get education in a 3-year program). Knitted hats, scarves, and mittens go to various places that have the need. We're counting things in the dozens now, but there was a time when five or six items made and given away were a big thrill. Still is...doing something for others never goes out of style. Enjoy the snowy days!Judith Palmerhttp://www.jrjerints-palmer.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
