Frequently opportunities surface at the most unlikely time. When HLS members Amy Frey and Dena Hanson called upon other librarians to bring handmade "wraps" to our annual meeting for donating to a Ronald McDonald house, I was inspired. However, needlecraft is not one of my talents. During MLA '10, I asked Pam Lovera, Librarian at Prince William Hospital, about teaming up. She would do the stitchery and I would provide the book.
Last summer I started dating a widower. While cleaning his wife's sewing room, we found a beautiful unfinished afghan. When I showed it to Pam, she agreed to finish it for a Project WRAP donation. The fun continued during a trip to a bookstore with my beau's seven year old granddaughter. She picked out the books to accompany the afghan.
Sometimes all the pieces fall into place at just the right time.
