Stitches from the Heart

I always get so rejuvenated when I go to my mom's Stitches meetings. (No, these are not Stitch & Bitch) but meetings for volunteers who make things for Stitches from the Heart. My mom loves this charity so much she decided to run little (well, now not so little) meetings at her house once a month for poeple to gather, share ideas and patterns, get inspired, etc.

There are so many different types of women at the meeting and I wish I had more time to talk to everyone. They primarily make baby items which are then donated. Some of the talent is remarkable! There was a lady named Bebe there who has had a stroke and crochets with sight in only one eye. Her work was beautiful!

I painted Paige's bedroom this wonderful pale periwinkle blue. It makes her eyes sparkle. All of her furnishings are white andI have created my version of a Pottery Barn kid's room. :)
