Beads for Courage Bags |
I had an afternoon of charity sewing with a friend this week. We've put together another 14 or so lined drawstring bags for the Beads for Courage (BOC) organization. (I blogged about this Arts in Medicine organization here.)

I think it's wonderful that you are donating your time and talent to such a worthy cause. I bet these put smiles on the kids faces.
ReplyDeleteI just noticed in your profile info that you went to school in Brazil, and so I have to ask which city? Which school? I went to Graded.
Thanks, Gayle. Small world indeed! I was in Rio de Janeiro at Escola Americana (EA) - I visited Graded on a band trip!
DeleteHi Jackie, I too could yes and yes - great tute and fab project :)
