Stitch for Syria

So the other day i was looking at my twitter time line and found a post by Mr X Stitch (if you don't know who he is, please check him out! a totally awesome cross stitcher!) about stitching for Syria. so i checked out the link and this is what i found:

From Concerned Worldwide: "In Lebanon, Concern helps Syrian refugees learn embroidery. these sessions give women a vital income and bring them hope and friendship. now you can support these women and get creative too! Sign up to this challenge and we'll email you one of their beautiful patterns. stitch and share it to show you care." here is the link for the challenge.

so i signed up for the challenge and got a pattern that Mr. X stitch created for the challenge. my finished cross stitch, i posted it on twitter, but i also mailed it back to Concerned Worldwide to show my support of the women who are learning embroidery. i know it's small and it's not money in the end. but knowing how much support means to me in my life, i wanted to show these women that they have support also. and if you you mail the cross stitch you've made, Concerned Worldwide will use it to make a special art project to show every's support for these women.

here is a picture of what i made for the challenge:
