Blankets for Charity
Will you help?
With the onset of cold weather in Minnesota, the shelters are looking for ways to help homeless teens. An article done by KARE 11 (a twin cities news channel) says that there are about 2,500 homeless teens in the cities.
The shelters are looking for supplies, and one of the things they need are blankets. Hancock fabric has fleece for making blankets. When you throw in the cost of miscellaneous supplies and taxes, it comes to about $5.00 per yard. We want to collect at least $100.00 to make blankets to donate to the shelters.

Regretfully closed
We regret that Blankets for Charity must be declared a failed and dead project.
We have neither the time nor the money to do this as an independent charity, and the organization that we were courting took our initial products for distribution in their network, then never spoke to us again.

Yay!!!! Number three, and yes I know it looks a little like number two. But, what can I say the fabric was pretty. The next two will be a boys color scheme. Will post next pics as I get them. Thanks to everyone who has donated so far, and for those who are thinking about it. They are very much appreciated. I will be making a trek up to the cities next weekend to do a drop off, and will post a pic or two of that.
Thanks everyone!!!!
