This week I have been most inspired by a new blog I discovered – Craft Hope. According to Jade, the founder, “Craft Hope is a faith-based, love inspired project designed to share handmade crafts with those less fortunate. It is our hope to combine our love for crafting and desire to help others into a project to make a difference around the world”. Well they certainly make a difference! So far the projects have included: making pillowcase dresses for orphanages in Brazil and Mexico; and making gorgeous handmade dolls for orphanages in Nicaragua. Truly inspirational!! Crafters from all over the world are getting on board. They will be announcing the next project soon.
I have been working on a few “secret” projects this weekend. More will be revealed soon.
