Heartstrings - Hugs From the Heart
Meets 1st Saturday of each month from 9:00 - 11:00 a.m.
Heartstrings Hugs from the Heart meets on the 1st Saturday of every month from 9:00 - 11:00 a.m., in Upper Courtside East (Room 220). Come and fellowship with other delightful women of all ages and skill levels to knit and crochet for a cause.
We continue each month to work on many different projects and add new projects as the needs arise. The following projects are still current:
- Creating beanies for babies born to families stationed at Camp Pendleton and Miramar. There is a tremendous need for these caps as there are approximately 100 babies delivered to these military families each month.
- Making lapghans made from a variety of knitted and crocheted rectangles for the elderly folks visited each month by the High School Ministry here at RBCPC. 7” by 9” blocks are knitted or crocheted and then 16 blocks are color coordinated and crocheted together to make a lovely lapghan for the elderly.
- Knitting and crocheting bereavement blankets for babies delivered at Pomerado Hospital to be given to the parents as a reminder of their special child in hopes of comforting them in their loss.
- Making baby blankets for Children’s Hospital for their neonatal intensive care unit made from fleece with a simple crocheted border.
- Creating beanies and fleece scarves for Operation Christmas Child, the homeless ministry and for Elma Barnett’s Children’s Center in Kenya.
We have several different patterns available for each project or you may use your own. Please contact Cyndi Nolan at (858) 484-4674 if you would like any patterns or have any questions about this ministry. You may also pick up patterns at one of our meetings. If you have any completed items, please leave them in the Welcome Center pickup basket for Cyndi Nolan or bring them to our next gathering.
The Heartstrings ministry is for all skill levels, including beginners. Please encourage your friends to join us, too. Please feel free to forward this web site on to anyone who might be interested in joining us in this ministry. Together, we can all make a difference in someone else's life through the work of our hands.
