Have you done any charity stitching, been in one, or would like to organize one?
My middle name should be ‘charity’ instead of Carol! LOL
The main org I stitch for-and I have stitched at least 30+ squares is ‘Love Quilts’. Then I have done stitching for ‘Cole’s Quilts’ and ‘Operation Teddy Bear’ plus a MSN Cross Stitch group. I am signed up to stitch for OECS (for older folks in nursing homes over in England), and I plan to do a few squares for them shortly as I have deadlines looming for LQs.
Charity stitching for kids is great. I love seeing photos of the sick kids with the finished quilts wrapped snugly around them. I stitch some things for family and friends (and they have to be really unusual), but I think giving away what you stitch to strangers takes commitment and love for your craft-well it takes it to a different level.
