Lap BLankets For Wheelchair users

10/23/2020

0 Comments

 
SpiritCare's vice president, Jeanie, has been busy creating lap blankets which she was able to give to Pacifica Senior Living and Hopkins Manor, thanks to the baskets of yarn which Sunrise Senior Living communities on the San Francisco Peninsula generously donated at our 2019 Christmas Breakfast. Before the COVID19 pandemic SpiritCare visited these communities each month for worship services with music:
  • Sunrise of Belmont
  • Sunrise of Burlingame
  • Sunrise of San Mateo, and
  • Sunrise of Palo Alto

How about getting a group of friends together make squares that you can sew into lap blankets for older adults in wheelchairs? Just let us know by filling in our Contact form and we can tell you how many squares you need. You can knit or crochet the squares. As the weather gets colder, when care community residents are pushed outside they will welcome a cozy blanket.

Here are some of the lap blankets that Jeanie made. Thank you Sunrise and thank you Jeanie.

Thank you to Charlyne and St Andrews Presbyterian Women who made lap quilts. The quilts have straps on them to hold them in place. Stitches at the corner of each square hold the layers of the quilt together. 

​Some have beautiful details like this one with birds on it. Others have flowers and colorful designs.

Thank You For Craft Supplies

Paula and her family packed boxes of craft supplies for some of the care communities that SpiritCare usually visits. Given the COVID-19 pandemic, boxes were left outside the residences on tables to help mitigate spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.

The boxes were carefully marked for specific care communities. Some requested scrapbooks, others materials for making cards. The boxes contained ribbons, stickers and tags for decorating books of memories.
