Before I update everyone on the number of kids we helped this year, I have some sad news.  My husband passed away right after distribution on July 27.  Some of you knew that he had been in failing health for many years with respiratory issues caused by very brittle bones resulting in reduced lung capacity.  I [...]

Hi everyone! This Saturday will be our last inventory turn-in so please bring it all, plus any kits you haven't finished.  If you still have fabric, you can create this summer and turn it in at our September Open House.

Thanks everyone for their inventory turn ins on Saturday!   You all kept us hopping.  Only one thing, someone turned in a top and a pair of hand crafted shorts.  Please remember we do not accept hand crafted items - to be blunt and clear - with a crotch.  We are unable to safely fit a child [...]

Hi everyone I apologize for the late reminder for our meeting this Saturday, but I was hoping the distribution volunteer website would be up and running, but alas it is not available yet. As a reminder, I will no longer have the manual sign up sheets for distribution.  Everyone will now go online at Back to [...]

Hi everyone! Our next Open House will be this Saturday from 9-12.  We will have a meeting from 10-10:30 so please don't arrive during that time to drop off inventory and pick up supplies as it is too hard while we are having a meeting.  Mary has completed the inventory and I have attached.  Our biggest [...]

2023-03-06T08:05:26-07:00March 6th, 2023|Categories: Stitches of Love|

Hi everyone. Well guess what?! The St. Patrick's Day parade is this Saturday from 10-12 (same as our Open House) and both 3rd Street AND Coronado Road will be CLOSED!  This also means that 7th Street will be a mess. So we have decided to push Open House to 1:00 to 3:00 with no meeting.  If [...]
