Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Sewing Hands!  It is time to begin our projects for 2013.   Here is what is (so far) on the drawing board (or cutting table as the case may be).

SPRING PROJECT - Hagar's House, New Orleans Louisiana (click on the link to learn more)
                                   This is a homeless shelter for women and children.  They would like 10
                                    quilts, some dresses for toddler girls and some shorts for pre-teen girls.
                                    Sharon and Deborah will be making the delivery June 1st.


FALL PROJECT -    A domestic violence abuse shelter in Michigan.  Due to the nature of this
                                  agency we have agreed to not publish their name or city.  They have asked
                                  for 20 quilts for women and 30 fleece blankets for children.


We realize that many of you like to make the clothing and there wasn't a large request for dresses and shorts from these two places.  So we are working on a third project that would require 25 dresses and 25 shorts.  Once we receive confirmation I will put out another blog to give you the particulars.

So....before we all run over to our sewing machines I need to thank some new helpers.

Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Bollmeyer for your donation!
Thank you Pam Reno for your donation!
Thank you Lois Kuhn for your donation!

Lastly, we have two new "sewing hands".... Lynda Everman, Tennessee and Karen Gormany, Wisconsin.   Welcome!  We appreciate you sharing your talents with us.

Happy Sewing,
Sharon and Deborah
