Today, I'm grateful for these amazing woman.
Zoe, Jen, Treann, Alison, Val, Megan, Karen, Heather, Lindsey, Crafty Mermaid, Elsa, Megan, Jan, Melissa, Jane, Tat, Ceila, Roslyn, Karen, Rachel, Fran, Isabelle, Vanessa, Amanda, Mary Jo and Prue.
How could I not be? These beautiful women have donated time and materials to make such gorgeous soft toys for children who have lost everything during the Queensland floods in January.
I am overwhelmed by their generosity. Thank-you, Thank-you.
I chose to do my Dolly Drive for Queensland, because it was very close to home. But my heart is with all of the families and children who have suffered through natural disasters this year. Floods, fires, cyclones, earthquakes and tsunamis, both throughout Australia and the world.
My thoughts and best wishes are with the people of Japan today. So much devastation and lives lost. Truly heartbreaking.
The names of the women above, are the makers of the dolls, I have already received. Actually a few are still on they way (but I've seen pictures!)
