Our Stake RS Meeting was tonight - we had a nice dinner and then made these baby hats for stillborn infants. It is a program called Angel Babies - or Teeny Tears - check it out online. They are very easy to make - using surgical gauze - the smallest are 2 inches, the middle ones 3 inches and the largest are 4 inches. The tiny ones are for 12 week to 15 weeks, the middle ones 16 to 20 weeks and the largest for above 20 weeks. They will be given to hospitals in our area for the dressing of stillborn babies to wear when they are taken to their parents to say goodbye. You can also make 12 x 12 blankets, and small kimono gowns - check the website. There take make 5 minutes to make!!
This is the small card placed in the baggie with two of the hats, one to dress the baby and one for the parents to keep as a memento.
This was at each of our plates at the dinner - I spilled my water!! Lovely evening.
