Knit/Crochet a block–Help Someone Keep Warm

If you are an avid crafter, chances are you rushing to complete a number of Christmas gifts. As each day passes by, we are one day closer to Christmas and gift giving. One more day of crafting time is swept behind you.

Once you are ready to take a breather, why not use some of your extra yarn and make 7 “x 9” squares for Warm Up America.

Michaels Stores has teamed up with Warm Up America and many stores now have boxes to accept your 7″x9″ pieces.  The staff there will them make arrangements to sew these pieces together into blankets which will then be given to local charity.  This allows local craft talent to aid local needs.

This is an excellent way to use up your scrap yarn and help someone keep warm

Matt 25:34-36,40

“Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the creation of the world. 

For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home.

I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me.’

“And the King will say, ‘I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me!’
