My friend, Tricia Walker, is very involved with the charity, Days For Girls. On a recent trip to Uganda she worked teaching women how to make sanitary kits. This group is now in need of supplies to make more kits. Tricia has made arrangements to have flannel squares delivered on July 2 but she recently broke her wrist and is unable to cut the squares she promised. She came to me a few days ago and asked if I could help. Of course, I told her I could help and I thought maybe you all might like to help as well!
Our June Chairty Sew Day, Wednesday, June 28, at Scheetz Sew Creative will be dedicated to cutting 8 1/2" flannel squares to send to Uganda. We will begin cutting at 10:30. Please bring your own ruler and favorite rotarty cutter. All fabric is provided, but donations of flannel or PLU scraps larger than 8 1/2" x 10 1/2" are gladly accepted. Darker colors and prints are preferred. If you can't join us on the 28th but would like to cut squares at home, squares can be dropped off at Scheetz Sew Creative by Friday, June 30th.
