It does my heart good to see your post. I read a post on SA today that soldiers have asked for as for as many blankets as we can send. Today I am serging single layer fleece blankets to send to the hospital in Germany. It gets mighty cold for our wounded soldiers on the airplane back to the states. I found 1.5 yard fleece remnants at half price at JoAnn's that are the perfect size as the wounded are on stretchers size beds on the planes.
There is no better gift than a gift from the heart, whether it is the soldiers, the homeless, children, charity or hospitals.
