Sew along with me {for Japan}

We’ve all seen the devastating images... It’s hard to imagine yourself in that situation.  The losses that they have endured are just beginning.  The loss of lives, the loss of homes, the loss of belongings…It’s unthinkable. 
A recent Ucreate Creative Guest  was Chelsea from Pink Fig and she posted a tutorial and pattern for a T-Shirt to make for a child in Japan.

I loved the idea.
An opportunity to help in a personal way…with creativity, with my hands, with love.
