Update: As of 6pm Pacific time over $800 raised!
100% of all pattern sale proceeds to go to Three Angels Haiti today! We raised $759 a few days ago and I hope to raise some more funds for them with your help again! All of the Three Angels Orphanage children are now on U.S. soil and Three Angels Haiti is now turning their attention to the people who still need help in Haiti. Please go visit their site and read some of the updates. They also take donations through the site as well.
Just a note about why I picked Three Angels Haiti: I became aware of Three Angels a few months back through Shannon Hoffman, the director. She was looking for some sewing projects to teach some of the girls in a sewing class. She explained to me that a simple sewing project, whether a toy or a dress or a Christmas ornament, could be the only hope some of these girls/women would ever have. It just moved me beyond belief that a simple pattern or craft idea that we take for granted everyday could eventually be a livelihood for a young girl somewhere else.
Just purchased my first pattern from you via etsy – SO excited!! Can't wait to start sewing. What a big heart you have – thank you for helping the people of Haiti!
Great stuff! I actually just heard from a friend that lives in Haiti that the Nation has opened and expiditaed the adoptions that are/where in process! For all those little angels that were in limbo, they are now able to go with their families IMMEDIATELY! What a huge blessing!
thank you for doing this. i purchased my first pattern today, and my heart is so happy that it will be going to a good cause.
I just bought the last 3 patterns I don't have from you. 🙂 Glad the proceeds will benefit a good cause.
Blessings to you!
I've had this pattern in my favorites for a long time. This is the perfect reason to just jump in and grab it. I have so many fun tee shirts to upcycle for this sweet girl of mine. Thanks!!
What is the status on the leggings pattern? That's the one I really want but don't have yet.
Thank you for your generosity!
Is the leggings ready yet?? I am SO waiting for that.
going to buy the other three patterns i don't have from you now. you are awesome!
You seriously do some amazing work. Your wooden pendants inspired me to try something new. I thought I would share. Check it out here: http://gluegunsandspatulas.blogspot.com/2010/01/scrapbook-paper-wooden-pendants.html
Yes it is a definitely moving cause. I wish more people were able to understand how it`s like over there. I think every one who followed you along with what you had in mind for this cause are amazing people. I am very proud to know you guys and your blog Ashley.
Keep it up! It meters
That's awesome. But, I am ordering you to take a Starbucks trip (either coffee or diet coke is fine) and STOP working for an hour. Just remember, none of us are with you, you are ALLOWED to take a break. I know you are tough but let your mind continue to think creatively. If you go 100% business you're bound to get too tired to THINK UP MORE GOODS for us 🙂
Love LBB 🙂
Check out my blog today… I used one of your patterns again.
