Suzie,

Here are some pictures that we took. They look better here than on my blog,  http://sarahsday-sarah.blogspot.com/. I should have used bigger pictures in the blog.

So I bought a new sewing machine but left my credit card at the store. Do you think it means something?

See you soon-

Binky PatrolNE IA Binky Patrol Chapter
 
Binky Patrol is a national non-profit organization that reaches out to needy children, including HIV-positive, drug-addicted, neglected, abused or children experiencing trauma in any way.  “Binkies” are distributed through local area hospitals, shelters, and social service agencies. 
 
“Binkies” of any size from 36″ X 36″ all the way up to twin size.  These binky’s may be quilted, sewen, knitted or crocheted.  If tying off please make sure yarn is double knotted and no longer than 1″ long.  Fringe on crocheted or knitted “binkies” need to be kept short also.  No buttons should be used.  Labels will be sewn in one corner.  “Binkies” may be made without batting if you desire.  Remember sometimes batting makes the “Binkies” heavy for young children. 
 
Donations of money may be made to Binky Patrol, this money will be forwarded to the national headquarters and returned to us in the form of money or supplies.  We can accept fabric, notions, batting, yarn or other supplies.  Donated supplies will be distributed to local volunteers for binky making.  Tax receipts will be available if requested.
