Quilts for Japan

Happy Friday everyone!

This afternoon, Alex and I are lucky enough to be heading out to Stitcher's Crossing for another of our Craft Hope group meet-ups. Last time we started on some Take-Along Quilts and we are hoping (fingers crossed) to get them done today.

Craft Hope: Handmade Crafts for a Cause

We will be shipping off our finished products to the Quilts for Quake Survivors organization. Here is a small bit of information about this group:

Quilts finished and received by April 22nd will be sent to Patchwork Tsushin in Japan who will distribute to those in need. Quilts finished after April 22nd will be listed in our etsy shop with 100% of the sale going to Mercy Corps and Peace Winds.

Luckily, I think we can get these mailed on Monday and they will be there before the April 22nd deadline. I can't think of a more devastating experience than having everything taken away from you within moments. It feels really good to be able to help...even in such a small way.

So, I'm off to be a good global citizen! Talk to you next week!!
