Aussie Hero Dinner Laundry bag.

Aussie Hero laundry bag to take to the Annual Aussie Heroes Dinner in Canberra.

Shopping Bargains.

 I thought I might like to share with you my bargain buys for Aussie Hero stuff, I am always on the lookout for things to use at a good price. Today I went to Lincraft to check out their half priced fabrics and came back with this instead, At the front of their store in the window they had a clearance of a 20c assrtment box, in it was a pair of shoelaces. I asked if they had any more and showed her what I used them for she told me that they had others in the store at 99c each and she would sell them to me for 20c each, I thanked her and got them all. How I use them is by cutting them to size and sewing them together to make the right size cord. 1 pair of shoelaces makes 1 cord with some left over.

Also in the 20c box were these mending patches. Perfect for using on the laundry bags for initials. I hope it gives you some ideas.

Winning Stuff!

 Look at this lovely fabric that arrived today. Jodie Carleton's new fabric range called Rock Pool. http://vintagericrac.blogspot.com.au/

 3 of these wonderful softie panels in different colours too.  I was a random pick from a comment on RED PEPPER QUILTS . www.redpepperquilts.com 
Do check out the blog, it is very inspiring, I love how the fabrics have been used.
I know Exactly how I am going to use these too. My niece in England is going to have a baby boy any day now,  This will be perfect! I am so very very lucky.

While I was out I went to Spotlight and came home with these 3m braids/cords on special for 25c each, perfect for laundry bag cords.
