AURORA, Ill., May 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- BERNINA of America, the premier manufacturer of sewing, embroidery and quilting machines, is proud to announce the launch of the Sew A Little Love Bug campaign. The new campaign is led by the Creativity Shell, a Rochester, New York-based nonprofit organization that teaches children how to use creative trades such as sewing. The goal of the campaign is to raise awareness for children's mental health. In addition to BERNINA of America, the campaign is also sponsored by Moda Fabrics and Hobbs Bonded Fiber.
The Sew A Little Love Bug campaign encourages sewists to sew a love bug that will be donated to local stores and available for purchase. All the funds raised throughout this campaign will go towards building a Creativity Shell Design Center in Houston, Texas. In addition to the classes and programs Creativity Shell offers, the new center in Houston will offer mental health services to children led by experienced therapists that work with kids suffering from a variety of mental health issues including depression and anxiety. Those interested in sewing a love bug can pick up a pattern at participating Moda Fabric stores. The campaign will run throughout the month of May.
"BERNINA of America is honored to work with an organization like Creativity Shell that understands the importance of mental health," said Paul Ashworth, President of BERNINA of America. "Like BERNINA, the Creativity Shell recognizes that activities like sewing are not only therapeutic hobbies, but they also have the ability to help strengthen critical thinking and decision-making skills especially in young children."
