I decided to do a little service in the month of February. You know...spread some "love" {haha}. I used Craft Hope's latest project, which is birthing kits for Haiti. I roped in a few friends to help and altogether we made 6 bags. It was fun to get together and chit chat and do something for a good cause. Thank you Angie and Molly!
For each kit we had to make a bag {we used this pattern} to hold the following items {which were sealed in a gallon baggie}
1 small bar of soap
1 packet alcohol wipe
1 packet Purelle
1 pair of clean latex gloves
1 square yard of clear sheeting
3 pieces of clean string each 12″ long
flannelette/cotton receiving blanket 1 square yard

Here are their bags that they made! Molly's is on the left, Angie's is on the right!

Here are the bags I made. I made one to show them, one with them, then I decided at the last minute to make 2 more since we had enough for 6 kits.

I am grateful for the opportunity to serve and the means to do so. It helps to have friends who feel the same way too! It does my heart good!

What better things to combine than sewing talent and a heart ready to serve?!? You guys are great. I'm sure these women are going to be so grateful for these bags...AND they are super cute. I think I'll make one myself. Wish me luck!
