Charity Sewing: Preemie Pillows
Charity Sewing:
Preemie Pillows
Join Becky and our amazing community of volunteers as we create soft positioning pillows for premature babies in the Newborn Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at UNM Hospital. Your time and stitches bring comfort to some of the tiniest, most fragile little ones and their families.
We need volunteers to:
- Cut fabric
- Trace patterns
- Sew pillow shapes
- Stuff and finish pillows
Please note: This is not a sewing instruction class; participants who wish to sew should already be familiar with basic machine operation and bring their own sewing machine.
