CALLING ALL SEWING MOMS!!!!I need your help!!!!! I have been working with a wonderful group called SHARE. The following will explain what SHARE is and who it helps...
Share Parents of Utah is a volunteer effort of parents and health care professionals working together to help parents who have experienced pregnancy or infant loss. Share Parents of Utah is affiliated with National Share, Pregnancy and Infant Loss Support, Inc., and is a non-profit, non-denominational organization. Our primary purpose is to provide support toward positive resolution of grief experienced at the time of, or following the death of a baby. Anyone who has lost a baby through miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, stillbirth, or newborn death is welcome to call Share Parents of Utah and/or attend local support group meetings. All information packets, correspondence, and support are free of charge for bereaved parents.
Well this is where you can help me out... SHARE makes and donates little outfits and blankets to the local hospitals for pregnancy and Infant Loss babies. These hospitals include all hospitals in the valley going as far as
Orem and as high a
Heber Valley. Hospitals are in great demand -- this is a truly sad thought to think about. I have been sewing for SHARE since January and thought maybe if I could find some great people to help me out we could make a great effort. I am going to organize an event on Saturday which we can all meet and try and sew several outfit, blankets, and hats hopefully being able to supply the hospital for a small while. What you need to understand is that SHARE runs on donations... So we need flannel fabric, ribbed Knit for the hats... The Nurses for the hospitals like the little outfits and blankets made from flannel -- with a very very simple pattern... nothing loud.. Remember these are special little outfits for these babies and families -- often being a treasured keepsake for the family... I have the patterns for the outfits starting at 1lbs. - 8lbs. and a great blanket pattern.. If you think you could attend please contact me or leave me a contact... I am planning on MAY 31 Again if you are interested please please contact me for more information or comment and I will get back to you....
*If anyone can sew and have friends that can sew it would be great if we could get as many as possible so we can get as many outfits made in one day. I was at my sisters house when a women from Share came to pick the little outfits up and she said that hospitals are calling them weekly to see if they have any out fits...its so sad to say but this does happen to families on almost a daily basis...this is outfit is what most babies will be laid to rest in...lunch will be provided all we ask for is a donation of some frabic...and of course your time!
I can't believe that Molly is almost ten months old!! My sister and I found these dresses at Kmart of all places for $6 bucks! Sense Kitty is so small and Molly is so tall we can now buy matching outfits! Molly has discovered the doggy door, Cooters food, got a new swing, dad bought me a fire truck sit and scoot, she can feed her self, pull herself up, and let Sage lick my face..she is getting so big! It's so fun to see her grow up!
I can't believe that Molly is nine months old already!! I had to buy this little picnic bench from Ikea...both Bart and I had one when we were little..I am just going to leave it in her room..I bought some lights to put above it...Molly is so close to crawling..she is saying ma..ma...and waving hello and goodbye...she is the cutest thing ever!!
