new life needs new clothes, new diapers, new blankets. or you could say a layette.
the sewing hope project women have been making flannel baby blankets. five women come every week and get flannel and hem the edges. these blankets are for layettes and currently we don't have any layettes, so we got together the clothing and diapers we had and made layettes with what we had on sunday. we got about 40 or so made (that should last a couple weeks) we used stockinette to make baby hats. it makes a huge difference with a babies temperature to be able to put a little hat on their heads!
although five women aren't alot, i hope the money they are making is helping them feed their children. i guess for gary, nerline, john wendy and the other children in these families it helps them possibly have food for a couple days. thanks so much to those who are part of the sewing hope project.
