1. I’ve been talking about the “Share A Square“ project for a year now, which means it just celebrated it’s One Year Anniversary!
There has been such a huge outpouring of love for this project that it has been exciting and a privilige to be a part of it!
2. Along with “Share A Square” we had the “SAS Bag Project” and just like the afghans, people stepped right up and answered the call! Today’s 13 I wanted to share with you photos of those bags that were made to go with each afghan. Each bag will hold the tags that hangs from each square from the one who made it. Once the child who receives their afghan, they will be able to keep all their tags in a cute bag as a wonderful keepsake thanks to all the great volunteers.

12. I have another five bags on their way so as soon as I get them I’ll post a photo of those too! Shelly, the creator of SAS has made some bags also. Barbara who had the task of getting 70 bags also has reached her goal. So all that’s left…getting it all together and delivering the afghans and bags to the kids of Camp Sanguinity!
13. You know I absolutely love the idea of Share a Square, and the reason for the afghans. But I really wish kids didn’t have a need for these afghan’s & that there was no cancer in the world.
Thanks to everyone for your help and support for SAS and the Bag Project!

Sherry, that is so fantastic. I’m glad we figured out that those “medicine bags” would be great to hold the tags. I’m so thankful to you and Barbara for pulling that part of the project together. I don’t know what I would have done without you!!
I’m going Friday to talk to folks at Cooks Children’s Medical Center (the camp headquarters) and determine the EXACT date we are delivering. It may be Sunday June 6th or Monday June 7th. It kinda depends on their schedule. Can you go with?
