This year, 8 of our NCCL members participated in Take Steps (@takesteps__crohnscolitisfn), the Foundation’s largest annual fundraiser! We walked, raised money, and most importantly got to connect with others that relate to and care about this cause. We 💜 Take Steps!

Patchwork & some life!! 💜

For the third year I have sold patchwork shirts as a fundraiser benefiting the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation. 100% of proceeds from these projects were donated to my Take Steps team, Team Tummy Hurts!

On May 16th, my team and I were at Take Steps, the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation’s fundraising and awareness walk, taking steps towards a cure for Crohn’s and colitis.

I’m am so lucky to be able to combine two of my biggest passions for this project. Using fashion and creating to support other IBD patients is such a joy!

Thank you so much to everyone who bought a shirt, donated to my team, and walked alongside me. Your support means the world 💖🫶🏻

I am always open for patchwork orders, I would be honored to make your vision come to life! Just fill out this form: https://forms.gle/xENvbTFxTa5tTfhs7
