Donations

Another round of thank yous for some wonderful donations to the Eastern European and Russian Orphanages Project! These were received in either August or September. I still have some more September packages to go through so if you don't see your name here, don't worry, there's more to come!

First off, a couple of hats and some socks from yours truly (I have in fact been crafting despite the apparent lack of documented progress):

Some baby mitts (super cute), socks, and hats from Beverly J. of Santa Fe, NM:



Tiina S. of Augusta, GA sent tons of blanket squares that look like these:
Carol L. from Kentwood, MI sent socks, hats, 4 gorgeous sweaters, and some mittens:




 B. J. M. from Salisbury, MD sent a blanket, some scarves, and some hats:



Valerie H. from Morris Plain, NJ sent 38 (!) pairs of mittens and a pair of slippers. These were given in memory of Dorothy Coombs whom Valerie tells me would have liked nothing better than to see these used by children in need:





Callista W. from Lakewood, CO sent some hats and a sweater:



Mrs. James W. of Kerrville, TX gave some darling booties, some hats, and tons of knitted toys:


 And LeeAnn G. from Denton, TX sent a large wrap, toys, mittens, scarves, cute headbands, and a hat:







Thank you so much to everyone who donated! Please remember that we are still taking monetary donations for the shipping to Sliven, Bulgaria. The shipment was pajamas for the orphans of the Special Helping School.
