“The residents love it,” Abbi said referring to Mitsy Kit programming. “It’s a very relaxing activity that engages both their body and mind, and it allows them to be creative. There’s also a beautiful product for them to be proud of at the end, which adds to the purposeful and meaningful aspect of the activity. We’re currently in the process of trying to bring the Mitsy Kits to all the Bridges communities.” Read the entire article here.

I want to express my genuine thanks to Mitsy Kit for creating this fantastic opportunity for visually impaired folks to create meaningful projects. The number one thing I appreciate is that the instructions are precise and step-by-step and will be explained as many times as needed over the phone. The second thing I truly appreciate is that the pieces are already cut and the right and wrong sides are differentiated. They have also magickly created sticky strips to place on the edges so that we can sew straight seams. I am so proud of the pinwheel quilt! Thank you!

I had a wonderful experience with my special needs nephew with cognitive and small muscle challenges recently.  He made a pillow from a Mitsy Kit.  Even though he had never done any sewing before, he “got” it quickly and he was so proud and happy.  Everyone who came into the house (we were on a family vacation with lots of folks) was proudly shown the finished pillow by him and he got a lot of high fives.  Pride, self esteem, focus, patience, accomplishment and just a plain old fun hour together.  We’ll do another one soon!
