I've known these wonderful ladies for over 20 plus years. I met them while working at the Title Company downtown. We would knit / crochet or work on a craft at lunch every Tuesday. We have all stayed in touch over the years.
We started making blankets for Project Linus way back in the day and have continued to do so through the years. Yesterday was our day for this year. We were very blessed to have Karen Loucks Rinedollar join us for lunch. Founder of Project Linus. Over the years that she has joined for the day or picked up blankets I have not been available to attend so yesterday was a huge treat for me to finally meet her.
If you are not familiar with Project Linus, please google and check it out. Karen has a book she wrote, Working for Peanuts and it tells you how Project Linus all came to life. There is also a 30th year edition that has just come out. If you enjoy reading, this is a great read.
I can't begin to tell you all how wonderful this makes me feel making and donating these blankets yearly.
Hope you all enjoy your weekend!
Happy Stitching!
