It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since we began our 100
bags a month program. We started making 100 bags to give out in October to
breast cancer survivors. We got schools and volunteers to join us and we did
it. At the beginning of 2014 we decided
we wanted to try to make 100 bags every month. Some months we hit our goal others we didn't
due to health issues however we consistently made bags and donated them every month
to survivors. We recently have a few more sewers to help us. This works out
well when Jessie isn't up to sewing.
I spoke with a young man who
wants to make some bow ties for men. This is a great idea. We hope he can start this process with some of
our fabric scraps and donate a portion of the proceeds to Jessie’s bags.
This got us to thinking there may be other ideas and
designers we can team up with to create items that will benefit Jessie’s cause.
We have some fabric to share. Do you have any suggestions? What is your skill?
What do you make? We try to up-cycle as much as possible. Contact us jessiesbags@gmail.com let’s see what we can create together.
