    Default A wonderful charity action over here!

    I am very fond of this charitiy action and I want to show it to you!
    This action starts with hearts little children from Kindergarten or school paint on paper: sometimes a whole class joined in!
    Then there is a lady who makes out of this painted hearts pttern for cross stitching: these patterns were sent to another ladies who are fond of cross stitching and they stitch these hearts!
    Then these hearts were send to people like me who is willing and has enough fabric to sew little pillow cases aout of them!
    Little pillows were stuffed in the cases and then they will be donated to children suffering from cancer or other heavy illness.
    And here some pictures! And as I always say: these pillows are priceless!

    This is how the cross stitch patterns look like!

    Very, very sweet I like how well the fabric blends with the cross-stitched parts, even though they're made by different women. So much kindness is needed in this world where suffering exists.

    Very pretty. So generous of those and yourself making these pillows for others.
