Four pairs of adult-sized lounge pants - ✔ (well, all but the drawstrings that are on the way). I used McCall's # 4244 for three of them and McCall's 4979 for the green pair.
Four pillowcases for the grandies - ✔ I use the burrito-method and the tutorial can be found HERE
Our local food bank's November food drive is rather a fun one so I thought I'd post it here in case you'd like to go shopping for YOUR local area. We don't (obviously) buy and deliver one thing each day but we put it all together into one larger donation. We also buy multiples of many of the items. When we drop it all off we give them our grocery receipt and they send us a tax deduction. Win/win!
- THIS, along with a bottle of nice apple juice, would be a nice little gift at Christmas.
- THESE are really cute and would make a wonderful gift for a little someone in your life.
- THIS might be a nice gift for a family.
- Some of you might be interested in THIS sew-along.
Today's quote is from Dr. Jane Goodall..."Let us move forward with faith in ourselves, in our intelligence, in our indomitable spirit. Let us develop respect for all living things. Let us try to replace violence and intolerance with understanding and compassion and love"
Thanks for the food bank encouragement. It's needed always not just in these times of crisis.
ReplyDeleteFor sure! I think the food bank has come up with a fun way to encourage donations with this incentive.
