What I did to honor the memory of Queen Katarina today.
BiH Crafts is a good cause, you can find them online too. The stories of the women who make things that are sold by BiH Craft are on their website.
Here is some information related to the organization:

wow! the initiave is noble and useful and the knitwear delightful!
I'm going to buy these wonderful warm and colourful socks for sure.
Surfing in the net I also found the site of a group of Bosnian women, who migrated to the US because of the war, and who set up a business based on real Bosnian crafts, especially socks, scarfs, hats and gloves. unfortunately I lost the link, but I'm going to find it again.
have a nice day!

You can get the little slipper socks on nearly any street corner in downtown Sarajevo, usually for 5KM a pair. I have so far gotten three pair.
Iknow about the other site you mention, I can't find my link off hand either, but it's a good project.
A lot of Bosnians live in St. Louis, in fact my son lives near St. Louis, and when I was in the airport looking for my luggage, I heard three teenage girls chatting in Bosnian and said hello to them.
This little shop in Sarajevo is full of nice well made things that make good gifts.
