Since I was not working, I wanted to put my sewing skills to use in a way other then my gigs from Craigslist. My nephew told me about an organization that had volunteers make teddy bears for families, who had a member recently pass. They are made from articles of clothing of the deceased. I thought, what a wonderful idea. I need to do that. I contacted the lady who was in charge of that department, and soon was on my way to being a member of the volunteer sewing group. Here are a few pictures of the first group of bears.
