Donation time again

It’s time to pass on the little draw string bags I’ve made and take them to the drop off collection point for Foster Hope, a charity helping children placed into foster care.  These little lined bags are fun to make, using up some novelty scraps, and I try to make some for both boys and girls.  The children use these bags for toiletries, or as pencil bags.  Gemma thought it was “all about her” and did a little photo bombing!

I also included my recently completed Bow Tie cot quilt in the parcel.  This was always going to be a donation quilt, and I stitched the blocks each month while taking part in the Rainbow Scrap Challenge.  More suitable for a little girl, as the blocks contain flowers aplenty.

I do hope that the items bring a smile to a child’s face.  Being taken into foster care must be a daunting prospect for young children.
