DONATIONS

WHILE IN THE WAITING ROOM AT THE HEART CENTER I STARTED TALKING TO A LADY THAT WAS THERE WITH HER HUSBAND. MISS JUANITA TOLD ME ABOUT HER MOTHER'S SISTER MISS MAVIS WHO HAD PASSED AWAY A FEW YEARS AGO WITH CANCER OF THE OVARIES. SHE SAID MISS MAVIS WAS A GREAT CRAFTER AND CHRISTIAN. HER DAUGHTER'S DIDN'T SEW SO THEY GAVE MISS JUANITA HER CRAFTS. THIS IS WHAT SHE DIDN'T USE AND SHE GAVE THEM TO ME.
THE FIRST PICTURE IS OF A BOX FULL OF LACE. WHAT I DON'T USE FOR THE PREEMIES WILL BE USED FOR THE NURSING HOMES. AUNT JANELLE IS MAKING A LOT OF LAPGHANS AND DONATING THEM.

THIS IS A PICTURE OF YARN, HOOKS AND OTHER THINGS. AS YOU CAN SEE I'VE ALREADY STARTED CROCHETING A PINK BABY BLANKET.

MISS JUANITA SAID SHE WAS A NURSE FOR 25 YEARS I THINK. I MAY NOT HAVE THAT RIGHT BECAUSE I FORGOT TO RIGHT THAT PART DOWN, BUT I KNOW SHE WAS A NURSE. SHE SAID THAT SHE MADE APRONS FOR THE NURSING HOME WITH BUTTONS, ZIPPERS AND OTHER THINGS ON THEM. SHE CALLED THEM WORRY APRONS OR BUSY APRONS. (I REALLY NEED TO WRITE DOWN EVERYTHING BECAUSE THE BRAIN IS GONE.) I'M GOING WITH BUSY APRONS. ANYWAY AUNT JANELLE AND I ARE GOING TO MAKE SOME BUSY LAPGHANS. I'VE SEEN A LOT OF PEOPLE IN WHEELCHAIRS AND SUCH WORRYING WITH A CORNER OF A SHIRT OR SOMETHING. I THINK THEY WOULD REALLY LIKE SOMETHING LIKE MAYBE A SMALLER VERSION OF A LAPGHAN TO TINKER WITH.AUNT JANELLE AND I TALKED AND WE'RE GOING TO TRY MAKING SOME.

THANK YOU SO MUCH MISS JUANITA FOR SHARING YOUR AUNT'S CRAFTS. WE'LL MAKE SURE THAT THEY TOUCH A LOT OF LIVES.
