Busy, busy

I have much to share with you, but no time right now! This is just a quick post to tell you about a charitable stitching spree I am trying to get off the ground. If you think you might be able to help, please read on!

My 84 year old MIL's Church class sponsors a local (to them) charity by the name of PATH. Pocono Area Transition Housing. They support abused women and children. MIL's class brings them all the essentials every month. (tissues, toilet paper, diapers, etc.), so they are always looking for ways to raise $$$. She told me about FROG, which stands for Forever Rely On God. Then my wheels started spinning. I know that a lot of stitchers love frogs.

I would love to have stitchers stitch up a quick bookmark that her church group could sell for around $5 or $6.
I found a free chart that can be used here but the word "Fully" needs to be changed to "Forever" on the chart. Maybe any volunteers could change that on the fly(?).
I also think it would be a nice touch if each stitcher would include were they are from stitched down at the bottom, maybe the right bottom corner. Maybe your initials and the state or country of your residence.

If you are interested in helping me with this cause, please let me know by leaving a comment here. You can start stitching from the link, but please change the wording as stated above. I will get out the mailing information soon.

Thank you to all you wonderful stitchers!!!!!
