Toy Society Drop




On the 24th of March, my son had a Doctors appointment in Canberra, so that was decided to be the place of my first "http://thetoysociety.blogspot.com" drop.




My son helped me with the drop, and the excitment, and joy in his eyes when we made the drop was wonderful.




The drop was made on the 24 March at 9am, in Wakefield Ave Park, Anislie, ACT.




I hope whoever found "Hoot" gets as much joy and love from him as we did making him & doing the drop.

Missy Mack's Paper bag swap


I drew Gail for this swap, we seem to have similar tastes, so this should be fun!


Lots of girls things went into my paperbag, rose fabric, ric rac, lace, charms, lacework hearts, and threads.


Caring Heart!


The craft forum members sent me a pack of caring hearts last year when my Granfather died, not sure what to do with them, but knowing I wanted something I could use and remember my wonderful friends with, I decided to make this bag, the pockets on the inside are made of the hearts to.

Peter's 40th


Yes, he didn't have any idea, after all that worry and stress.

It was a great night catching up with people we haven't seen for a long time. The watermelon with sparklers for his birthday cake went down a treat with the kids.


The photo is of Peter and our youngest Aaron, and yes they have alfoil on there heads, the kids were playing aliens, so one of the dad's made foil anti-alien helmets for them out of foil, with glo sticks for anti-alien swords.

Monthly Charm Lotto


I won, I won, I won!


On the craft forum I won the February Monthly Charm Lotto, the theme for the month was Leaves.
I received 11 enevlopes over three days filled with fabric. The funny thing was the first enevlope to arrive was the charm squares that I entered.


I'm not sure what to do with them yet, but I'm thinking of bordering each square in one of two different fabrics, and making a large picnic blanket out of them.


Or I might change my mind and do something else, it's just fun laying them all out.
