Look how much we raised!

Well my little luggage tags have been posted off to the winning bidder, thanks Angela! And today I found out that altogether our crafting auctions and raffles raised a whopping $99,089! WOW!



It was great to be a part of this!

Auction all finished now!

Thanks so much for those who took part in my little auction for the luggage tags.  The highest bidder was Angela with $60.  I hope you love them Angela!  For those who missed out or didn't know about it, make sure to check out Toni's blog tomorrow for all the raffles that are still going on until Wednesday.

Last chance to bid! [ALL FINISHED NOW!]

For all my lovely followers out there...and anyone else lurking around....this is just a reminder that my auction closes at midnight eastern australian time (about two hours from now!) 10pm Perth time as on the clock in the sidebar.  So if you would like to bid for this lovely set of fabric luggage tags made from fun travel themed fabrics then please click on the picture for details.  Current Highest Bid is AU$60.

The winning bidder will pay the money direct into the Premier's Flood Appeal so you know it's safe and going to a reputable charity not a fake one

Week 3: Do You Stack Up Challenge - Pink

If you are here for the DYSU Challenge, it is in this post, just scroll down.  But first I just want to promote the Auctions happening around blogland for the Queensland Flood Appeal.  I'm having one on this blog here for some Cute Travel Themed Fabric Luggage Tags.  The Master List can be found here and there really are some wonderful items available.  Please take a moment to check it out.  If nothing else you'll find some truly inspirational blogs to drool over!!



 

And now onto the third week of the Do You Stack Up challenge. Today we have two sponsors: Bugaboo Stamps and Pink Gem Designs, both are offering up prizes.

     

The Challenge this week is:

Pink!

The design team were offered images to play around with from the sponsors and I chose to use the Cuddle image from the 'A Kid's View - In Love' range from Bugaboo seeing as Valentines Day is just around the corner.

So head on over to DYSU to see all the other goodies made by the Design Team.  Add your pink creation to the list.

First Attempt at Patchwork!

My friend Lorraine made me aware of RetroMummy's 'Quilts for Queensland' drive.  She is asking for help from fellow bloggers to make blocks that will then be made into quilts by her army of quilters.  Well I have never attempted patchwork before as I always seem to think that the end product will just take too long to get to and I'll get bored and give up! I like short projects!  Anyway I figured that even I could manage a couple of blocks.  And yay I did!  I made these two Pinwheels, I believe they are called!

One of them is a little bit mis-match but I think it's passable. What do you think? Feeling very pleased with myself, although I'm not sure this is really the thing for me!  Might stick to my little projects!

So if you feel so inclined to help out then head on over to RetroMummy's blog and get all the details.
