I'm Doing This!

I found this blog many moons ago... and it inspires me.  It takes what they are passionate about (crafting) and uses their skills to do great things for the kingdom.

While I found, I haven't been able to participate yet... well, because... I don't have the same skills.  I can't knit, but want to learn.  And my sewing skills are novice at best.

However, their newest endeavour?  I think I can do it! 

They are making bean bag education sets.  I am going to try to do the alphabet set.  I want to be held accountable for this... so every Thursday between now and May 15th (when they are due), I am going to post an update on what I have done/what still needs to be done/ my plan of action.

Today is the first day...

By next Thursday I will have the materials bought and pattern chosen!  I will need:

- scrap material (minimum two colors)
- sewing machine
- thread
- aquarium gravel

I think I'll probably use this tutorial as my guide?

Anyone want to join me?  Let me know!  And if nothing else... ask me how it is going so I actually do it!

Thank you so much for jumping in on this project. It holds great potential for having such a major positive impact on Liberian children. Thank you fo your part. I will check on Thursdays to see how you are progressing.
