The warmer temperatures are definitely here.
We currently need cotton hats of all sizes - men, women and children. Remember the darker colors for the men and boys.
Please make whatever you enjoy making as we can use anything you make.


The need for blankets continues in several different sizes:

  • Lap blankets 30" x 42"
  • Large blankets 40" x 70"
  • Blankets for babies

Get in touch with us at loisfth@me.com or call 804-305-4971. We look forward to hearing from you!

As always anything you want to make we can really use to help fill the bins in the shop and warm the hearts and bodies of those in need.
