We have had some exciting happenings in the past few weeks. We had another young person work with us on a community service project and that is always exciting. We received another box from Louisa and her friends in Italy. As always the quilt tops and orphan squares are just beautiful!! Many of them are the perfect size to be used for our Preemie Quilt Drive. We also had a delivery of materials from Sara and it included so many gorgeous fabrics, yarn and many special things we rarely receive like ric rack. We can put all of these to good very good use!!
Anita and her quilters are buzzing away with the Preemie Quilts and I believe we will exceed our wildest dreams this winter. It is so exciting to see the pictures of all of the sweet little creations as her groups puts them together. How wonderfully dressed the NICU's will be this Holiday Season and Christmas!!
Another exciting development is that we have found a wonderful lady - actually someone I went to high school with, who adopts a group of Army men and women. They will be returning to Afghanistan this November and we will be sending blankets to help this project. We are so honored to help Cherry and her husband assist these young people and hopefully ease their burden just a little.
Stay tuned - we are very busy and things are coming and going. More pictures will be posted soon - be sure to watch the Flickr feed on our blog. As always, if you would like to get involved and help, please do email us at binkypatrolsc@sc.rr.com or visit our site at BPSC.CO. There is always lots to do and we can use every pair of hands we can get!!
