I sew with a "humanitarian group." There are 7 women and Paul, who keeps us organized and cuts all the fabric for us. He has 6 vintage Berninas and a serger set up on some tables. We make newborn kits (receiving blanket, baby gown, hat, burp cloth, bib, fleece booties and flannel diapers [for Ecuador]), we sew children's clothing (pants, skirts, t-shirts and dresses), and quilts from baby to full size. We give what we've made to our local groups first (The Family Place or Refugees). Then we send what we can to Ecuador.

We go to Paul's home on Mondays and sew for up to 4 hours. He will have items cut out and ready to sew. And we each choose what we want to sew, and try to get it all done before we go home. It's enjoyable to meet with other like-minded women, and feels good to give service.

I think you need to decide where the items you make will go.
