To: Knitting A Conundrum

Here's one I did at the start of the war:

I think I made nine patches. I hope someone got them who appreciated them.

Has anyone ever heard of the Binky Patrol? They make blankets and give them to firemen, policemen, etc. to give to children who are involved in situations that they have to cover. There is a chapter to the south of me that is very active (Crawfordsville, IN). If I could just rearrange my priorities a little bit, I would love to start a chapter in my community. Maybe even a VRWKNC chapter? That would be fun, too.

Oops, almost forgot: www.binkypatrol.org

This isn't just a regular FR thread, I think we all know that emotion/physical/spiritual pain are all real. ;-)

80sqmi, my husband has had Crohns disease for 34 years. You have a sympathetic ear here.

I've got 4 kids, 19-28 years, so I know how life gets interrupted by crises, both the urgent knd, and the important kind. lol

This thread is a calm respite. I'd love to see us work on some sort of charitable project together. I think Project Binky sounds wonderful.
