Giving Back

an interview with Kim McKee


Kim buys baby blankets at Michael's. She spends six months stitching them and then adding padding and backing. They go to friends, anybody she's aware of whose had a baby.


"It keeps me out of trouble. I enjoy it and it's giving back. I have been given the ability to sit for hours and just sew."






Thanks to an early childhood accident, Kim's right hand doesn't fully function. She has a square plastic frame, which her right hand grips while her left hand stitches.


"I lose myself in the moment of creating and I thank God for giving this ability to give back."


What gifts do you have, and how do you give back?
