Works In Progress.

 Front and back of knitting.
 This is the back of the work, showing the current piece I am working on and one that is finished. Instead of cutting the yarn for the next colour change I am just having it loosely on the back to cut after it is done to weave it in.
There is a wonderful knitting blog with step by step techniques I am following with delight,

This is the Aussie hero quilt  so far, It will have an Aussie map appliqued onto it.

Baby Sets.

 Finished today are 2 baby sets for my nieces neighbours who are both expecting babies in a couple of weeks time. I will have to find better light globes cos they don't quite match the colours in artificial light.
They are getting picked up mid week. I am also busy making cord as I have run out.

Charity Makes for 2012

Foe a couple of weeks I have been looking to find specific charities close to home that i can deliver the goods too. This one is the Special Care Nursery at Mercy Hospital in Heidelberg, a 60 bed care facility. They need Isolette covers Pattern available here http://featherweightclub.com.au/doc/Isolette_Cover_Sew_Pattern.pdf

This is very special to me cos I was a premature baby nearly 50 years ago.
Anyone else making things for Charity that could give me some leads on where else to look in Melbourne, groups etc?
