Charity Blitz 2008--a group effort to support a different charity each month

[2kute]

17 hats done so far. I wanted to have 25 by now, but I've been s-l-o-w.

 

Way to go Cris. Thanks

 

judianne, don't feel bad. There's always next month.

Just a Friendly Reminder ~

 

The month is just about over and those cutey patooty hats will be on their way to 2kute so when you get ready to send to 2kute, please remember to PM me with your totals.

 

I hope everyone is geared up for April's Charity! It's for Spot's Blanket and the sponsor for April is ThatThunderbird. She will be along soon to give us some details about the charity and what is needed, special instructions, etc.

 

And last but certainly not least - the awesome Minwife4boys is the April Charity Coordinator. So glad that you're feeling up to it Minwife! So glad to have you back!!

Yep:clap back in the saddle again ready to take names and tallies of the snuggles for fur babies!

[ThatThunderbird]

Hello All!!! I am deeply touched to see Spot's Blanket up for April. Basically the goal of Spot's Blanket is to provide "spots" for the homeless dogs at our local pound in Spot's name.

 

The blankets can be sized for puppies to large (think doberman size) dogs. I have made and taken in blankets that are square and blankets that are round. Just try to keep in mind doggie nails when you are making them!

 

I will be providing a P.O. Box for deliveries and feel free to check out http://www.spotsblanket.com for anything else.

 

Please contact me by pm if you have any questions and I'll do my best to get back with you quickly.

 

Again; thank you so much for caring about these animals! I am so touched to be a part of such a caring group.

I/m ready to start....the Snuggles web site has great patterns for tightly made blankies for the furbabues...

2kute, I just returned from the post office. I mailed out 20 baby hats for the March charity. This is my first time to participate in a monthly blitz and it was fun. I didn't wait until the end of the month because I knew I was heading out to the post office today.

 

I have also finished my first "cat mat" for April. I call it that because my cat keeps sitting on it. Don't worry, 2kute, the kitty wasn't anywhere near the baby hats. LOL

thank you so much...

 

my son's kitty and my puppy love those mats. I made one for each but still, when I am crocheting them, they come hang out with me

[ThatThunderbird]

I have used the patterns on the Snuggles website or I just wing it with tightly done stitches...You really can't go wrong with them!

 

Thanks a bunch,
