Lots of Lovely Donations.

I've been sick with a sinus infection this week so I am a bit behind again with acknowledging donations.  Maria Wilson from WA has very generously donated $100 towards batting costs.

Margaret Brown and the Nicola Court Quilters have been busy and have donated 43 bibs, 37 Santa Sacks and 49 drawstring bags.  Margaret also made 12 burp cloths, 3 knitted beanies, a beautifully knitted baby's blanket and a large number of batting squares.  Nada Kozic also donated 6 rolls of knit fabric and some bags of wadding.

Barbara Black and the Monday Quilters have been very busy sewing and have made 43 Santa Sacks and an incredible 230 drawstring bags. 

Kathie Williamson has been very busy knitting and has donated 8 warm scarves,  10 beanies and quite a few baby's wraps.
Karen Barrett from Qld has sent a lovely bright fabric that I can use to cover logos on donated school and Ambulance jackets.

I have more quilts to photograph too and hope to catch up soon.
Hugs, Jan Mac xx

Happy Birthday Aidan.

Our precious grand son, Aidan, was 4 on Wednesday and it hardly seems very long since his birth.

He's fearless and has boundless energy which means that someone is on "Aidan duty" if we're out as he climbs and runs non-stop. 

He's growing into a very caring little boy who loves lots of cuddles, playing with lego and puzzles and reading books.
He's just getting over a nasty cold but we had a lovely day to celebrate his special day.
Hugs, Jan Mac xx
