As I mentioned in my previous post, my son has made a backpack.  He also made a pillow for himself and his sister.  Last year, when he was in 6th grade he had Family Consumer Science (formerly called Home Ec, for older folks, lol)  He loved that class.  They did some cooking and hand sewing.  Unfortunately, it is only for 1 marking period.  He just had this class last marking period for 7th grade.  This time they learned to use the sewing machine.  He already had a head start as last year he made some zipper pouches using my sewing machine.  He sold them and donated the money to the Ronald McDonald's House in nearby Hershey, PA  In his class he made a full size pillow.  He did a fabulous job and made another at home using flannel this time and he even made a pillow for his older sister.  Here are his projects.

  1. Hello sister Missy. I am a Pastor from Mumbai India. I am glad to stop by your profile on the blogger and the blog post. I am also blessed and feel privileged and honoured to get connected with you as well as know you and about your interest in the Word of God and also being outdoors and sewing. Your son also seems have picked up the same art and his projects seem fabulous. I love getting connected with the people of God around the globe to be encouraged strengthened and praying for one another. I have been in the Pastoral ministry for last 40 yrs in this great city of Mumbai a city with a great contrast where richest of rich and the poorest of poor live. We reach out to the poorest of poor with the love of Christ to bring healing to the brokenhearted. We also encourage young and the adults from the west to come to Mumbai to work with us during their vacation time. We would love to have you come brother Chris and your two grown up prince and princess to Mumbai to work with us during your vacation time. I am sure you will have a life changing experiece and a time to empower women in the slums with your sewing experience. Looking forward to hear from you very soon. God's richest blessings on you your family and friends and also wishing you a blessed and a Christ centered rest of the year 2020.
