The Wonders of Technology

It has come to my attention that some e-mails that have been sent to me may be going directly to a spam folder.  I use the e-mail address leclaire91402@yahoo.com .  Unfortunately I get a ton of spam messages on there on a daily basis and I do not always sort through them.  I would love to put up my phone number but since this is an internet can be viewed from anyone in any time zone I can not do that.  The phone number that I use is my own home number.   With two small children at home I can't have the phone ring at all hours of the day.

If this continues to be a problem I will explore opening a separate e-mail account for this ministry.  I have not done so thus far because I felt that e-mail going to my regular account would be viewed much faster.  This however, will not work if messages are getting buried in a spam folder.  If I do open a new e-mail account I will post the address here.

What's Next? .....Baby Items

I like to set specific goals to keep on track and organized.  Now that the warm weather has arrived (sort of) there will be less need for the blankets and chemo hats.  While I will still continue to work on those items, my next goal is to get a package of baby items to the hospital.  I already have some items made up.  My goal is to have a package to bring by the end of April.  If you have any items to add please let me know so that I can pick them up before then.  Thank you!

This baby hat was crocheted with a size G hook and Caron Simply Soft yarn.

New Yarn Donation

Today we received a donation of acrylic yarns from April VanHorn. (Sorry, I am not sure if I am spelling this correctly).  Many of these yarns will be ideal for blankets and chemo hats.  There are some beautiful blue yarns that my be great for a blanket for a little boy.  Thank you so much April!  These yarns will go a long way!

If anyone is in need of yarn, crochet hook or knitting needles for your next project please let me know.  leclaire91402@yahoo.com
