    Thanks everyone!

    These will go to our local nursing home... there are 9 here.

    The "local" Veterns Hospital Nursing Unit, I do not have a accurate count, I know it is one of the main facilities for Minnesota, and have 2-3 floors ( some are ambulatory , some assisted by a walker and others are in a wheelchair, some are not ambulatory.... I have sent 6 walker bags, and 2 wheelchair quilts to this facility.

    I have 3 more almost complete.....

    ...and I've found some more fabric for you. But give me until next week to send it out to you. I've got a truck load of items to send out on Wednesday...and I'm thinking the snow delivery is not going to be real fun...lol.
