Charity Makes for 2011

I have been busy drawing out and sewing and cutting some Trauma dolls this morning, Tilli, less than clean, (luckily it is just on her back) decided that i should stop and give her some attention.
Half an hour later she decided that she had had enough and is now cleaning herself in the sun.
This months dolls are all cut out, 11 have been stuffed and 12 will be taken to doll club to be stuffed.

Woolen Fabric

Look what arrived at my front door this morning, A wonderful parcel of woolen fabric from Jodie Carleton of Ric-Rac http://vintagericrac.blogspot.com/
The pure joy of opening a parcel was so much fun for me you cannot imagine! I will be making for charity Jodie's delightful free pattern Little Birds with this fabric, and they will go under the K.Mart Wishing Tree this year along with the baby clothes and blankets as a package.
This fabric is delightfully soft and warm and will make the most wonderful little toys.

Charity Makes for 2011

I am working on a cream cardi at the moment, this is what i have made this week. 4 hats, 3 cardies, 6 pairs of booties and 4 trauma teddies. I would dearly love to do some sewing, i am missing doing that at the moment but i have run out of fiberfill, still it is my birthday next month and hopefully one of my kids will ask me what i would like, so fingers crossed!
