I used to make fleece hats, scarfs, headbands, etc. for holiday craft fairs. Came across a box of unsold items that I had forgotten about, so took them to the Salvation army to use for their Christmas Stocking give away. I also try new things now and then, and usually will end up donating what I make to some sort of charitable organization. I no longer do craft fairs but still like trying something new now and then, and this gives me an excuse to do so.

I spend much of my year making toys for Toys for Tots. I create crocheted dolls, animals, blankets as well as stuffed toys of all shapes and sizes. Also buy 18" dolls with coupons and then sew large wardrobes for them to give to Toys for Tots. My husband and I hate to hear of children without toys at the holidays.

Vivika, Read in your lastest article about donations to a worthy cause and as an Art Quilter , I designed & made three (3) - 30" (h) FIBER ART DOLLS to be sold Oct. 7th at auction to raise funds for a BATTERED WOMEN & CHILDREN's shelter in Chicago. Deconstructed denim jeans & hair, 80% recycled fabrics. I even made the wooden stands. I live in Florida but sent them by post. The children saw them and wanted to play, unfortunately only 3 little girls will get them, each doll is named for this years' benefit theme....PEACE, STRENGTH and BEAUTY. Regards, Constance Lee, Fiber Artist celee1954@yahoo.com
