Window display for Furnishing Hope, a non-profit who furnishes apartments for the Wounded Warrior Battalion at a moments notice.  The House Quilt Project that I started in 2010, supports this project by making 12x16 patriotic house quilts for the wall. 

Fleur De Lys, 369 E. 17th Street, #14, Costa Mesa, CA  92627 in Westport Plaza believes in giving back to the community by bringing awareness about non-profit organizations, and offering a shopping day.  Saturday, March 24th is the day!  Here's the scoop!  Check out their website

  2. Kudos Jamie! I admire how you stick by your charities. My instant thought was, what? no tea cup on the roof? The cushion is delightful:)
