My husband and I go on short term missions to Mexico and sometimes the Native Am. reservation in S. Dakota. These are some of the wonderful blankets made and donated to Five Fold Ministry.
Look what a dear friend gave for Mexico I think we will be giving these to the children with coloring books and crayons!!!
Thanks Debbie!!!
when I asked for a yarn donation on a local swap board i never imagined the generosity from a local dance studio. Vivians dance studio in Sch. Haven PA gave me a bunch of great items including this afgahn that only needed a boarder and thats what I gave it. Thanks Viv for your generosity!!!
