Hi all- Last October, our very first "Hammock Bee" was a great success! We ended up making nearly 40 hammocks to distribute as Christmas gifts between the ferret shelters in New England so...we're doing it again!!! New England Ferret Foster, Education, and Rescue, Inc will host our second Hammock Bee on March 8, 2003, in Converse Hall at Amherst College in Amherst, Massachusetts (easily accessible from major highways and byways). We've reserved a large room that can accomodate more stitchers, cutters, and pinners! If you'd like to come help out and bring a sewing machine or ironing board, or if you'd like to donate some fabric for the hammocks, please drop me a line (I'm the coordinator) at this e-mail address. Directions and more info will be forthcoming. Hope to see some FML faces there as we spend an afternoon making hammocks for shelter kids!! Thanks, Heather Wojtowicz Secretary, New England Ferret Foster, Education, and Rescue, Inc. www.neferrets.org [Posted in FML issue 4059]
