Scraps for good
So like everyone else, I have lots of scraps waiting to be put into projects, used as stuffing, etc.
My mom gives me her back issues of SewNews and I read about Operation Comfort Doll. Every year women all over the country find themselves interrible situations that end with a stay in a domestic abuse shelter. The Comfort Doll Project encourages crafters of all abilities to make special gifts so these women know they’re not alone as they begin to rebuild their lives and start anew.
So I thought, what a great way to use up scraps! My really small ones stuff the doll and my remnants are used for the dress. Instead of just using a single piece of fabric for the dress, I will probably do some small patterns to make up the length and width I need. My goal is to ship a dozen a month since they are really quick to make. Here's the blog link if you want to take a look. comfortdollproject.blogspot.com
Now if I can just finish the dratted Drunkard's Path which is still hanging on my design board!!!!!
