Thanks to the ones who sent yarn I have made about 55 hats so far..

I NEED fabric badly-- I have gotten a call from a shelter requesting more items..

Thanks to everyone who has voted for me--

and a BIG thanks to 4leafcloverswish for posting my wish for me this last round :)

I am going to try ONE more time, then put it to rest..

Since I dont have sick kids, been in a car accident, lost my home, had utilities shut off, etc I had better leave the $$$ to those who REALLY need them..

Thanks to all who have supported me. :)

I am disabled and this is something I can do to keep me busy and help others at the same time..

NOW I am in need of fabric to make security blankets for the children in the Homeless Shelters, Receiving blankets from Preemie to Newborn sizes for the Hospitals,

Lap Robes , Walker and wheelchair tote bags for the elderly and handicapped in the Nursing Homes

I also donate to the homeless families in my area, Hats scarves, small quilts etc

If you could just send 1 yard of Cotton or flannel fabric it would make a GREAT difference..

A $2.50 donation would buy a yard of fabric for me to make items or get a yard of batting to make the quilts..

One yard of fabric will make 6 Cool Ties to send to our troops..

If prefered you may send donations to my Paypal

Marcyhowlett@gmail.com

$2 will buy enough Yarn to make about 4 Newborn hats.. or fabric to make 2 preemie receiving blankets. (more)

I lost My Father on May 9th, 2007. We were to have his memorial service on June 20th.. BUT I fell on the 18th and badly bruised my hip--and wasnt able to go ..

I am still using a walker to hobble around..

NOW I would like to make a trip home for a few days--

I want to visit the cemetary where my Dad was laid to rest next to my Mom who passed 9 years ago, and my brother who passed away 2 years ago--

Also my High School is having our 40th Anniversary reunion the first part of August, so need funds to help with Gas, a motel for 2 nights , meals, and flowers for the cemetary.

It is 4 1/2 hour drive for me so to do a trip in a day is to much for me.. I want time to visit old friends from school, and just relax a bit .

I have not had a vacation for ME in about 100 years-- anyway it seems that long ...

PLUS I can check the thrift shops for fabric while I am up there LOL

Hopefully they are better than the thrift stores in my town ..

IF I win this I will use the $$ to help 2 wishes from GON...

Please help me to help myself--

If everyone could send my site to everyone they know maybe I could get a few sales to support my "habit" of helping others by knitting and sewing items for others--

i MAKE MY CHARITY ITEMS first THEN use left over fabric pieces to make small items to sell..

I can sell in wholesale lots to anyone-- I can also do layaway..

Know someone in need of hats for their children? Let me know and I will send some out..

I also have Baby bibs and burp clothes for new mommies in need..

I could also use sales $$ to help others on GON :)

Trying to live on SSD and SSI sucks-- just barely covers food and shelter,
and I love helping others ..

Donations of fabric and yarn are always welcome..
