Another Way to Sew for Good

November 22, 2016 Lisa Press
Spoonflower

As many of you know, for every Phoebe doll, I also donate a handmade doll to a child in need. Many dolls have gone to children in Foster care and children in Family Promise.

Next week, I will be sending dolls to a softie drive organized by Spoonflower, called Softies for Mirabel. "Softies for Mirabel’ is an annual handmade toy drive for the Mirabel children. Every year the toy drive is open to all crafty participants who wish to knit, crochet or sew a Softie or two. Participants are encouraged to be as creative as they like as each Softie will be matched to the age, likes and needs of a Mirabel child"

Mirabel is an Australian organization that provides support for children of addicts. However, you don't need to send your softies and dolls to Austrailia, Spoonflower will do that, you just need to send the to Spoonflower:

Durham, North Carolina Office
Spoonflower, Inc.
Attn : Softies for Mirabel
2810 Meridian Parkway, Suite 132
Durham, NC 27713, USA

Spoonflower not only creates custom printed fabrics, but you can buy fabrics designed by all sorts of artists, including many pre-printed dolls and softies. The dolls I am sending are from a fabric designed by Stacy Iest Hsu. One yard of fabric will get you four dolls. The pre-printed dolls are a nice way to start a child sewing (and giving) too.

Spoonflower is accepting donations until January 20, 2017.

Spring gets extra credit today🌱💕
Lovely April afternoon light. #extrasmall
Phoebe is loving Vietnam and her Vietnamese clothing so she’s staying a tiny bit more. #100dayproject #phoebe_goes_to #vietnam🇻🇳 #aodai
This Vietnamese dress involved a lot of improvising but I’m quite happy with the results. #phoebe_goes_to #vietnam 🇻🇳 and I’ve lost track of what day in the#100dayproject it is🤷🏻‍♀️
Yes Vietnam! #100dayproject #phoebe_goes_to #vietnam🇻🇳
#100dayproject Any guesses where Phoebe is now?
Prototyping. Almost there. 😐
#100dayproject #phoebe_goes_to #theczechrepublic
