One woman posted that she was looking for owl nursery decor/crib sheets. She had recently adopted a baby and wanted to get to work on her nursery. So I left the message that I did not have anything matching that description but if she found fabric I could make her a crib sheet.
She did find cute owl fabric. I asked her if she wanted a pillow as well and she said yes. She picked up the necessary supplies and I got to work. I did add a little of my own minky swirl to the pillow since it matched perfectly. I then asked if she had plans for the extra fabric and she said no. So I made her a bib, a tag lovey blankie, and a door muff to add to her pile. It was fun to sew for her and baby girl Meagan.
In this same group another woman put out a request for blankets to be made for newborns at our local hospital. Her son was putting together shoe boxes that would fit an outfit and a blanket for those that might not have anything for their new arrivals. His goal for his Eagle Project was 100 boxes. It is times like these that having an extra stash of fabric comes in handy. I was able to whip up a simple flannel blanket to add to his project.
