Sewing Pillowcase Dresses for Emily's Mission..."Dresses for Children in Need" Note: click on photo to enlarge..You will be able to see them better. Emily [my granddaughter]is a senior in high school. She had to do a project for her honors program, the student is to choose any type of program to start up and over see and to have a passion for. She chose to do for a children's home in a town about 2 hours from her. She said, these little girls had been through so much and she wanted to give them a new dress. She worked to find people that would donate [sew a dress] for them. I enjoyed this sewing project, not only did it help me get my sewing mojo going again, but... it felt good to sew for a child who has been through so much. I would like to thank Vickie from http://www.vickieskitchenandgarden.com/2016/09/4-ways-to-use-up-leftover-ham-part-one.htmlfor being such a wonderful christian friend. She saw on my previous blog post, that I had mentioned sewing these dresses, she emailed me and offered to sew a dress for Emily's Mission. Thank you Vickie... Every person that sews, ensures that Emily's vision for each girl to get a new dress will happen.. thank you so much. I would also like to thank my daughter in law, Gina. She sews these pillowcase dresses for Africa and Hatti, she has a real love for this mission of hers. She works on it constantly. She took time out of her busy schedule to sew some dresses for Emily's mission. She wants Emily's mission of every little girl to have a new dress , to happen. Thank you Gina. Emily loves you and appreciates you. Hope you all have a blessed week.. Will post my fall decorating soon. |

DeleteThere was a 100 year old woman who did this , but she passed. She did it up until the end.
ReplyDeleteI heard about that too Danielle.. Isn't that amazing? They are so easy to make.. and such a fun ministry. Most people do it for the Foreign countries [I have too] but, I loved that this is local..
