Days for Girls



We helped out in a community working bee for an international project called ‘Days for Girls’ to make sanitary supplies for the days of their menstruation. This means for girls that they miss out on school days every month and women can’t go to work and don’t receive an most needed income during this time.

This time it was for women’s and girls in East- Timor which is supported by a local lady. We used our sewing skills to make pads, shields and bags, that involved cutting fabrics, over locking, ‘normal sewing’ and packing ready to go bags.
If you like to find out more about the project go on to their web side

Pinwheel Quilts




















Made after a pattern from Marion Patterson.

Sonja chose some animal printed fabrics and combined it with bright colors. It is made out of 2 ½ inc strips. Aren’t those monkeys lock great? For the backing she joined strips in rainbow colors. One of the Kids at Monish might like it.






















Because it was fun to do she decided to make an other charity Quilt. This time she chose purple, white, yellow, blue and spotty fabric and to make it a bit bigger she chose 3 inc stripes. She quilted it on a domestic machine with walking foot in a zigzag pattern. A girl might like it.
