Can one of our Hood UMC Quilters please share the dimensions on this bag so others can start sewing them as well! This is the bag that we are using as New Mom/Baby combo bag that goes to Jordan Valley here in Republic!

This is the bag we are providing Moms/babies through Jordan Valley. They will contain a basic hygiene bag, deodorant, hairbrush, lotion, feminine hygiene items and chapstick for the mother along with wipes, baby wash and cloth, a stuffed animal or blanket and a storybook for the child. Sometimes we may have the opportunity to add in additional fun items for Mom’s such as inspirational bookmarks, stationary ect. If you’d like to donate any of these items, there is a drop box at Hines St Pharmacy, Hood UMC, or comment here and we will arrange a pick up. The only thing we don’t need right now are stuffed animals and children’s books. These bags will go out at Jordan Valley in Republic and will be shared with new mom there for services.

Bags currently being made are measured at 13 x 11. You can always drop by Hood UMC to get a sample bag for a pattern or we can drop one by to you. Alice Hoffman has offered to meet at the church and sew one with anyone who would prefer a quick idea of how to start. Please message me if you’d like her phone #! Be blessed!

Good Morning and Happy March! We are excited to be working on our first need for bags! They will go to the Republic High School and Middle School. They need a total of 50 right now! Our quilters are busy sewing away but we’d love to have help! Anyone interested in sewing up some bags for hygiene kits? Use your talent to give back to kids in need! Please comment here if you are interested! Thank you and have a blessed day!
