Cancer...the BIG C...not many of us have "escaped" being touched by this one in one way or another.
I got inspiring an email this week from Naomi at Heaven and Stitch Design, calling all those who sew, knit, crochet to join her in making caps for chemotherapy patients at the Tom Baker cancer centre in Calgary.
I am inspired. How about you?
Join me this Friday morning, 9:30am+ for coffee and cake...and lets create. Children are welcome...I know it's a no-school-friday. Bring your machine, your needles, your hooks, your helping hands, your caring hearts. If you don't consider yourself a crafty person, have no fear, come anyway, we can use your hands...come learn a thing or two...just come.
Leave a comment below if you plan on coming by.

Fun! I'm in! I can bring yarn and needles. Does anyone have a knitting pattern? A lot of my spare yarn would be best on a bald head if it had a fleece lining or something - are some sewers interested in teaming up? I can also bring a sewing machine, 1972 vintage but she still runs strong.
Great Heather!!!! Try these sites for some inspiration if you need. I'm sure someone will be able to offer to add a fleece liner..I even have a little fleece here. If not...I'm in!
One requirement is the yarn be anything non-wool ie: bamboo, acrylic, cotton. Heaven and Stitch are offering 10% all yarn intended for this project.
Oh and hey...bring your sewing machine if you want too...the more the merrier!!!
OOOooo I just heard Candace and Elaine are in. Nice one girls!
oooOOO and Michelle...you girls rock!
Sound like a great idea. Unfortunately I'm working, maybe a donation of yarn would help. Where can I drop it off, or I can try to make a hat at home and drop it off.
Thanks for your support Kelly! Donations would be wonderful (!!) and can be dropped by my house (1002 11th) or completed hats can be dropped to Coraley at Heaven Stitch & Design ph: 250.423.6652
sorry Heather...those sites: www.headhuggers.org or www.bevscountrycottage.com
Sorry to tell you folks...due to "the flu" visiting our house today, I will be rescheduling our sewing/crochet/knit session until Monday 6th...same time, same place...same channel Batman!
