Any more guesses?

New Melly and Me patterns!
I was absolutely elated recently to be offered the opportunity to test sew Mellys new 'Sew Little' patterns! As regular readers know, I am obsessed with Melly designs! She is also an amazing and lovely person. So I jumped at the chance to make not 1 but 2 of her newest creations!Jack absolutely looooves his Mini Mover! As you can tell he was very excited about his 'shirt' as he calls it :)
Emma was not as impressed,
but eventually she came around to being my perfect little super model lol.

Queensland Flood Appeal Auction
As i'm sure your aware by now many of us bloggers are holding Auctions to raise money for the people in our devistated state of Queensland.
The stories of loss and also courage have ripped our hearts out.
Toni and Carli at 'Make It Perfect' have done an amazing job of putting together this amazing auction, head over here to read more about the floods.
So to do my bit I have put together a baby gift set. To be included in the auction are a Dolphin softie, a Seahorse Baby Tag Toy and a Giraffe Baby Tag toy. This auction is for the actual toys, not the patterns.
You can take your choice of colours, (The green dolphins are made using Minky) I will even make a custom toy for you in your choice of colours if you like.
The Dolphins are made from 'Melly and Me's' Dee Dee Dolphin pattern. Dee Dee is a large toy, while the tag toys are approx 8 1/2" tall, perfect for little hands.
These tag toys are made from my own pattern that I hope to get out in the next few weeks.

Flood Appeal Auctions
Having lived in Queensland for about 1/3 of my life I am absolutely devestated by the news of the flooding and losses of such wonderful people.
But as a mother, I am an absolute mess! The news of a teenager giving up his life to save his brother has just wrecked me! I'm in my own puddle of tears!
As a pensioner I can't afford to give as much money as I would like to, so instead I am going to join in an Online Auction appeal, started by Toni of Make it Perfect fame.
In the next day or so I will be putting up a group of items that you can bid on with all proceeds being directly paid to the Premiers Relief Appeal.
If you can please join in and have an auction on your own blog. These people have lost everything and some people don't even have a pair of shoes! Can you imagine it! Head over to Tonis blog and grab the link.

Block Fail! :)
Have you ever saved a really special or favourite piece of fabric that you need just the right project for, then finally used it and had it backfire? lol
I had this gorgeous spotty fabric that I just loved!!! I only had 1 fat quarter left and so I didn't want to waste it. Then I thought I'd found the perfect project!
I was involved in a swap group last year and did a gorgeous block for one of the ladies. It was a kitten that I just fell in love with. She had such a gorgous personality. So when I started a new swap this month, I decided that I must redo this block for my baby girl.
What was the problem you ask? My delightful puddy cat has a severe case of the chicken pox! lol
