Laundry Bag Preparation.

 Today I have been ironing all the fabric I have prepared for the laundry bag linings and sewing them ready for the outer bag requests.
This is just a few of the laundry bag tops I have made ready for laundry bags. This is from the Hard Yakka trousers.

Quilt Finished.

 The quilt request for a friend is finished. Normally I do not make things other than for charity and community, but I made an exception here, a donation to the GoFundMe for Jan-Maree was acceptable in this case.
This is the back.

Look What Arrived In The Post!



 Look what arrived in the post today, A Care package of my own! You can imagine my surprise and confusion when I saw it. I thought at first that it was the quilt coming back to me until a closer look and read the description. Excitement and wonder took the place of in trepidation, this is what it must feel like to open a package!

This is the contents of the box. The zip pull he has made himself, as well a a lovely letter and photo  him holding his quilt.
