🌼Good afternoon, again, SMB members!🌼
I just received an email from Yarnspirations, and they’re doing something wonderful to support the Warm Up America Foundation — and it couldn’t be easier for us to help.
Every pattern you download triggers a donation from Yarnspirations. Yes… even the FREE ones (there are over 11,000 of them!)
Here’s how it works: • Download any pattern — crochet, knitting & sewing• Choose from thousands of patterns • Every download = a donation made by Yarnspirations to Warm Up America
You get to create what you love, and they handle the giving
It’s truly a win win. Browse to your heart’s content and help support a cause that aligns beautifully with what we do. You can even narrow down your search by Skill Type to make it easier to find your favorite needlework type.
Please visit Yarnspirations.com and enjoy exploring all the patterns while helping Warm Up America at the same time.💝

❤️Good afternoon, SMB members!❤️

We have been thinking deeply about expanding our mission.
Alongside supporting cancer centers, we feel called to reach even more people who are in need of comfort and care.

Women’s shelters, homeless shelters, and hospice facilities all serve individuals walking through incredibly difficult seasons in their lives — and their need for warmth, dignity, and handmade comfort is just as great.

As we continue to grow, we hope to include these organizations in our outreach so that your beautiful donations can touch even more lives.

Your kindness makes this possible, and we are grateful for every stitch, every share, and every act of love you pour into this mission.

Have a wonderful week and welcome June!!!!! 😎
