Hey Friends!
I am so very honored to share this post with you.
I received an email from Mique, from 30 Days Blog, about a friend of hers that is in need of some help.
Here is what Mique had to say about Sharlie:
Sharlie is a wife and mom.
She loves to read.
She loves to laugh.
She has an infectious smile.
And the best hugs on the planet.
Sharlie is also awaiting a double lung AND heart transplant.
She is an inspiration.
A fighter.
A miracle.
Jessica (one of Sharlie’s best friends) and Mique reached out to the creative community to come up with a way to raise funds for her impending medical bills.
They created a Shop for Sharlie- full of tutorials, printables, and advertising opportunities. Every single dollar raised will go straight to Sharlie’s Angels. So shop ’til your heart is content. And in return it will help Sharlie get her new heart.
So I created a tutorial on how to make this burlap flower pillow.
The tutorial only costs $5.00. And it will be sent directly to your email.
(This project will never be published on my blog.)
There are also other wonderful tutorials or other items to purchase at Shop for Sharlie.
Would you please stop by there and check it out?
Would you please consider purchasing something to help Sharlie and her sweet family?
This is the best part about blogging! If we all work together, we can make a HUGE difference in the lives of others.
God bless you!

Traci- I absolutely agree- this is the BEST part of blogging. Thanks for being a part of this miracle. You are the best!! xoxo
THank you Traci for sharing. What a touching story….I’m heading over to her link now :)
thank you for letting me know about this! you are a blessing, sweet girl.
I would love to donate a print for you guys to add to the shop. is that possible for me to do?
How sweet of you to do this! I bought the tutorial not because it’s so cute but to help such a wonderful cause. I met someone this summer that knows you. I was on a mission trip in NYC and was talking to another girl who i was serving with. When she told me where she was from, I immediately asked if she knew you. What was so funny was she said “is her last name ?” And I said “I don’t know!, I just know her first name! We had a blast serving in fort lee nj at a precious church plant. It’s a small world!
Traci,
Thanks for much for letting us know about this amazing young woman and her Goliath-sized need and for helping out yourself with the fundraiser. The info on your site compelled me to click over to her site and find out more. My suspicions, unfortunately, were right. Sharlie’s blog was very hard for me to read, because I have 2 beautiful grandbabies ( 1yr. old grandson and 2 year old granddaughter) who also have Cystic Fibrosis. I pray a cure will be found and that they never have to walk the road that Sharlie is on right now. But if they do, I pray that there will be special people like you and the other bloggers out there to be a blessing to them, too.
Thanks for helping!

What a wonderful idea to bless someone in need. Such an amazing story. It is wonderful that we can reach out to so many through blogs.

Dear wonderful Traci,
Thank you for sharing this on your blog. I had no idea what Jess and Miq were up to when they started the Shop for Sharlie site. I have been overwhelmed with gratitude for what they did and for what so many others that I don’t even know are doing to help me and my family. My trials have ALWAYS been overcompensated with an outpouring of love and blessings and my burdens have felt very light. I feel so blessed at this time and am filled with faith, hope and gratitude instead of fear and worry!! Thank you again! Blessings, Sharlie
