I found a link to the blog Iraqi Bundles of Love through another blog. An American Soldier in Iraq has sent out a call to quilters, knitters, crochets, and sewing enthusiasts to send a bundle to be given to local people in Iraq. Bundles can be made of yarn, fabric, tools (like scissors, thread, buttons, knitting needles etc) and are shipped to an address in the USA to be sent across for distribution.
The deadline for mailing packages is Sept 8th (Tuesday). If you are interested in participating, check out the blog (link above). You need to make a comment on one of his posts and he will mail you the mailing address. He has directions for how to pack the bundle, what to include and other FAQ's.
Sounds like a great idea to thin out my stash of yarn, needles and fabric and to help someone who would really use and appreciate my extra supplies. If you are interested, go check it out!
