2008 Year End Totals

2008 was an amazing year! The Crafty Weasels really pulled together and did a wonderful job in handcrafting more than 600 pieces of bedding, all of which was donated to shelters across the country.

As you can see, we completed a total of 643 pieces of bedding. That's 56 pieces MORE than we did in 2007! Look at the chart to the right to see the breakdown of the bedding that was made each month.

A list of shelters that received bedding as well as members who attended sew days in 2008 are listed below. There were an average of 12 people at the sew days and an average of 53 pieces of bedding were made each month. There were 36 different shelters that received bedding.

We collected almost $600 for shipping and supplies, spending about $550 of that throughout the year. This left us with a little bit to start the new year on the right foot. Thanks to everyone who donated or purchased bedding...it would be impossible to ship all these boxes without the generosity of our donators.

Be sure to check out our Shelter "Pincushion" to see a map of the shelters who have received bedding. Photos are added to the photo gallery every so often, so check back frequently. And don't forget to sign the guestbook!

Thanks goes out to everyone who helped us make 2008 a great year. We appreciate all the donations, monetary and items alike. Our volunteers have extremely large hearts and are such wonderful people. We have received many thanks from shelter moms, dads and ferrets that have received our bedding and it is great to know that we have helped so many. Thank you, thank you, thank you...it just cannot be said enough.
