Tomorrow is "IBOL Sundae" and that means that Artlafamme 's huge project of love is coming to a close---or perhaps it is really just beginning. Driven by a desire to help women in Iraq, he began requesting bundles of fabric and supplies to be sent for distribution in the country where he is serving. What started as a grass-roots request from the son and husband of quilters who is currently stationed in Iraq, has grown into a nationwide (and perhaps world-wide) project that will touch hundreds of women. IBOL stands for Iraqi Bundle of Love and each one consists of fabric, sewing and knitting supplies---as much as will fit into a Flat Rate USPS mailing box. The final day for shipping is Tuesday, so I am packing mine up today
and will be at the Post Office bright and early Tuesday morning.
While Art seems to have many "Kitteh" inspectors from around the world, I had my own personal inspector look over everything before I sealed it up. 
(actually, Emmi was so scared of the box, that this is as close as she would come to it)
