If you recall, recently I finished a scissor case that is from an accessory series called This Too Shall Pass. The owner of Elegant Stitch is the designer of these lovely needlework smalls. The proceeds for these kits, as well as her From the Heart series benefit breast cancer research. The owner herself is a breast cancer survivor and is an advocate for breast cancer screenings for all women.
Since I actually started and completed an entire needlework project (sewing included!!), I ordered this companion piece to my scissor case. This is a pinkeep and I am going to start stitching on it very soon! I think this will be a faster project than the first.
The Elegant Stitch website is updated weekly and I just found some new projects whose proceeds will once again go to benefit breast cancer research called Esmeralda's Friends. Each project is stitched on "awareness pink" fabric by different designers. The materials are donated and the cost of the kits go to a very good cause. Needless to say, I have signed up to receive each kit, so you will be seeing them here. And as on Lois's website, click here to fund mammograms for needy women.
