Laura from LaurasSewingStudio.com sent this in one of the emails, and I wanted to share it. One day, I would like to do something this nice for others. I also think that it might help someone!
In case you missed reading this earlier
this week –
I received a wonderful email this week from
Grace Federico. I thought you would enjoy
her story.
Hello, I would just like to give you a good
compliment! I downloaded one of your free
patterns, 2 years ago and have made about 4
dozen of the Walker bags. I have donated
them to 4 different rehabs and nursing
homes in my area and the bags were very
well received and appreciated! I also gave
them to some friends and neighbors, as I
live in an elderly complex. Everyone was so
thrilled with these bags and has gotten so
much use out of them! I purchased more
fabric, today, at Wal-Mart, for 2 dollars a
yard and I will be making more to give to
an Alzheimer rehab in my town. I only buy
the fabric, when I have some extra money,
as like I said, I donate them. I enjoy
sewing them and especially, where they are
so well appreciated! I just thought you
would like to hear about a good story and
thanks again for the pattern! Grace M.

That is exactly what I was thinking of doing. If she can be such a blessing to someone in need, I would love to be a little part of it, even if all I do, is help her a little.

Have you all ever gotten together, and done something as a group... to help someone?
by nonna57 20 Jun 2008
Yes at my small sewing group. Makes you feel good to be able to help someone in need. We need more of this in this sad & troubled world .

I know what you mean. I already wrote Laura to see if I can do something. Even if I have to send it through Laura. I think that we all need to encourage and help others. Too many people take time to complain, and not to praise and to thank. I like to make the time to praise and to encourage, and to be thankful. So... every little bit we can do counts.
13797 This story has restored my faith in human kindness - you start to doubt if there are many good people out there - but this and other stories i read (like the flower giving to a stranger) are truly moving and wish everyone would take the same path to a much happier and friendlier world. Many *'s to the kind hearted lady and to who posted this story.
