SEWING FOR SYDNEY.....

After the horrible tragedy in Sydney last week there is a rally going on for HASH TAG blocks.
MOLLIE SPARKLES from 
tells you all about it.
He is getting blocks from all over the world to put together some quilts for the children & families most affected by this event. It is so disturbing that this has happened in our own back yards. 
If you want to help out have a look at the link above.

I have made these blocks.


I did all of them during one movie. Not a lot of time to take out of your day to go to a good cause.
MINE ARE IN THE POST..
He is hoping for 1080 and in only a week has received over half of them.
Well done to the quilting world.


After the above post it is very hard to be cheerful but I'm sure everyone is still thinking of the families. 

I WISH EVERYONE A VERY HAPPY AND SAFE FESTIVE SEASON.
PLEASE ENJOY THE COMPANY OF WHO YOU SPEND THE DAY WITH AND TREASURE EVERY MOMENT YOU HAVE WITH YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS.
