If you sew, quilt, do machine or hand embroidery, make sewing projects for friends and charities then welcome! Please visit with me as I let you know what is going on in my sewing room. I sew in a room that is like a tree house. I use a Janome Skyline S9 and 9000 for my sewing and and embroidery. I still currently have my Janome 300e as well. Let's sew, quilt and embroider or at least talk about it!

Charitable Donations
We have heard many nice comments about our donating 10% of this months sales to feed the hungry. Since we started this business, we have always donated a portion of our proceeds to charity, but have never really mentioned it other than when we collected for the Japan tsunami relief. While money for us is always tight, we are fully aware of how blessed we are. We would like to be a help to others that don't even have adequate shelter or food. How nice it would be if we as sewers could lend our support to others that theirs and their whole families lives depend on their sewing. Does anyone know of a sewing related charity that assists our sewing sisters (and brothers) in third world countries that we can take on as a permanent monthly donation and help to them? Thinking particularly of women that by starting their own sewing business are able to support their family. Would love to hear some great ideas or have links sent to us. Thank you and our best wishes for a happy holiday season!
