All Things Dominican Republic Missions from Humble Quilts

What an amazing trip to DR! it is wonderful to be able to travel again.

I know I shared these photos on Facebook, but many of you are not on that social media so I need to share here. This was the hardest trip to give out dresses and I even brought some home for the next trip! I contemplated not bringing them all but then you know, I would have wished I had them!

I wasn't able to get as many photos as I have in the past either.

The mother was ecstatic! I think the little girl ...

Angelika says they are sewing clothing for their ...

Dignity Days Sewing from Humble Quilts

Some of you may remember when a few friends and myself got together to sew washable pads for Dignity Days in the Ivory Coast.

If you haven't been here that long and you want to know more, click HERE.

We made quite a few, enough to get the idea off the ground.

It was always Agelika's hope and prayer some women could start a little cottage industry in the village where they are missionaries.

I just got these photos this past weekend!

I love it when I hear of a vision and that vision becomes reality! Hopefully more ...

weekend goings . . . from Count it *all* JOY!

Todd and I got on the road yesterday afternoon and headed to Tuscaloosa for a missions conference. We stayed overnight at the Bama B&B!

It's a really pretty place and I'll share more about that later.

I finished up granddaughter Olivia's patchwork doll quilt . . .

Just a simple finish. It's sweet! I'll get this out in the mail to her on Monday.

I also finished block 20 of my Grandmother's Choice BOM.

I had trouble with the points on this one. I may (*may*) go back and fiddle with it. I also may not ...
