Following on from my post yesterday, This is the haul I got from the Freebies section. People bought with them stuff they no longer needed and you were free to take what you needed or wanted from it. Believe me when I say there were boxes of stuff left over that went to a good cause also, the school. The first picture will be turned into quilts for PNG.
These will be draw string bags for Angels for the Forgotten
I even got some calico for Trauma dolls.
This is for laundry bags.
These will be posted to Jan-Maree for either laundry bags or put into a quilt.
5 half done fronts for Christmas stockings and fabrics to make them up with. Destination, firstly they will be used as decorations for the Christmas party for ACDA then finally for the K Mart Wishing Tree filled with goodies.
Heavy weight canvas. Bags for Angels for the Forgotten.
These delightful fat 1/4s I will give to a quilter to be made into a charity quilt.
These fat 1/4s will be going into part of the basket of goodies to be raffled at our Christmas party for fundraising.
Kits to be split up for my Crafternooners to make for their Gift Box Makes.
For myself, Ric Rac Laundry bag, I just love Jodies stuff, She is just such an amazing person and to make a laundry bag for myself is going to be so much fun! Christmas stitchery to do at the same time as my Crafternooners, the finished item will be a gift for a friend who is mad about Santas. The hat book, Love it! No reason why I cannot make as many as I like, Final destination for the finished projects, Guardian Pharmacy next year.
This un opened Teddy Bear Kit, How cool is this! I will make and It will go under the K.Mart Wishing Tree.
Each lot has a place in my sewing room for what they are going to be used for. I think I will be happily making now for a couple of months.
In total I spent $30 on raffle tickets for 3 different charities yesterday.
This morning when I went shopping at my local shops, I had to look in Savers and my final $20 went on this lot. 36 metal pencil boxes, a packet of crayons and a packet of drawing pencils. Destination will be the Angels for the Forgotten Charity.
a fabulous haul of goodies

ReplyDeleteHi Sue
ReplyDeleteOne word : SCORE!!!!
It must have been so much fun with that lot. Jodie's peg bag is an awesome project. I've got one here from when I did Urban Stitches earlier this year. It is part of my "to do" list. So many projects, and not enough energy.
Cheers
Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteWow! Wasn't the give away table a great idea. I got a couple of nice things, I was trying to go home with less than I came with. I'm so so glad those stockings went to you and didn't sit in my cupboard for another couple of years. Extra happy they will end up under the K-Mart wishing tree. Lovely to meet you. Julie.
