Getting up to date!

I find it hard to believe its close to two years since I posted here!  Life goes so fast and often feels too busy.  A year ago I had an accident which slowed me down for a bit, but I was blessed with great care from family, friends and the NHS and getting close to 'normal' mobility again.

Never too busy, though, to have a knitting project on the go, and I manage to find some time for sewing sometimes at weekends or on holidays....

.... and the made4aid shop on Etsy continues to tick over, with some great donations from people who find made4aid online and offer some of their work.


Sue is still making and donating items to made4aid, here are some currently in the shop.





a velvet bookmark




cluster bracelet





  Some great key rings / bag charms, including this great owl one.


Sweet little butterfly earrings,

Sue now also has her own great shop on Etsy, MimzDesigns, with some fabulous steampunk and goth creations and artwork.


We have some unique and attractive and practical bags made and donated by Linda Ann

   


Sayani, a high school student in the USA is making wax crayons, from recycled left over ends, in funky fun shapes.


And Amar, in India, has donated some of his paintings.

    



All available (at the time of writing) in the made4aid shop on Etsy.

And me.....  I've been working on bits and pieces and will try to blog about that soon - and certainly sooner than another two years!


Proceeds from made4aid go to Medécins sans Frontières / Doctors without Borders.
We've raised £6678 / $US 9075, since 2009 when made4aid began.


Do get in touch if you're interested in helping!  made4aid@yahoo.co.uk;  and/or find us on facebook.
