Sewing and Yarn Crafters...

We always need more caring hands to create and assemble our items.  We have pre-cut packets for sewing, yarn donations for our knitters and those who crochet, and patterns for preemies.  Visit the 'Items' page for descriptions and pictures of the items we produce and supply to the hospitals.
 

All skill levels are welcome - we have everyone from absolute beginners to accomplished and experienced heirloom sewers and crafters participating.  Our patterns are simple, but can be embellished for those who are more creative!  Beginners are encouraged to attend our meetings to get hands-on instruction from our more experienced ladies. 

You do not have to attend any meetings to be involved, however we have regular meetings all around Charlotte to complete packets, work on items, share ideas and package items for delivery.  See our 'Events Calendar' page for the latest meeting schedule.

We have preemie hat and bootie patterns available for the knit and crochet crafters out there... fill our our 'Contact Us' form and we'll be happy to send you the patterns.  Also visit the links page for a list of internet sites where you can download free preemie patterns.

Precut Packets Contain Everything Needed to Complete the Items
