Shawls for February
This past summer, we sent all the shawls we had to Friends of the Fallen in Dover as part of the Prayer Shawls for Fallen Soldiers organization.
During February, I would ask that you spend your handcrafting time replenishing our supply of shawls.
Keep them at your own homes until we collect and mail them off on March 12.
If you need yarn, please don't hesitate to get some from the Prayer Shawl room at our next meeting.

Gift Bag Items
The McLeod Prayer Shawl Ladies will be crocheting, knitting, sewing or quilting small items to add to our Welcome Gift Bags which we hope to hand out to our church's visitors in the months ahead. Items will hopefully include hand-made bookmarks, coffee mug warmers, flower or seasonal pins, etc.
We plan to make 12 bags each six months (I KNOW!!! We haven't had that many visitors in 5 years!!! However, I have hope and faith and a really cute pattern for a floral pin that I'm just dying to try!)
The project should cost about $55 every six months. If you are not able to make something to add to the gift bags, perhaps you might consider donating toward them.
This will be our hand-craft emphasis for January.
