Look at these talented young sewers! With Grandma’s help, these little ones learned how to sew and made crib sheets, lovies, and washable breast pads for Mary’s Helping Hands!

We are so thankful for their time, creativity, and big hearts! What a special way to learn a new skill while helping families in our community. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us!
