Caring Needed....

THE FOLLOWING IS TAKEN FROM CHOOKY'S BLOGPOST ...

"In the Warrambungles Shire to date 

56,000ha has been burnt out

53 homes destroyed

120 shed/out buildings

unknown livestock, machinery, fences etc

The fire is still being controlled today nearly 2 weeks since it started..........

So how can you help.............

If you have a completed quilt that you would like to donate to the people who have been affected by the fires in Warrumbungles Shire could you please leave a comment on chooky's post so she can contact you.

I have been in contact with a couple of friends and we have 7 quilts between us now..............

I am unsure of the ages of the people affected but I did see a mixture of ages when I spent a day at the recovery centre............

What you can send me..............

a completed/bound quilt with a label and a letter/postcard from you with your contact details so if the recipient wants to contact you they can

(Unfortunately I can NOT take blocks etc to put quilts together as i don't have the time, skills or resources available to do this)

The quilts will be distributed via the 

CWA - Country Women's Association 

Quilts can also be dropped off to 

Kerry @ Cottage on the Hill Nundle

Anni @ The Home Patch Bathurst

If you are unable to send a quilt but would like to assist people affect by the fires you can make a donation to Blazeaid."

I've Been Busy...

 three double nine patch quilts all bound and quilted ready to go off to here for our Aussie soldiers...

ready for Jan-Maree and her ''merry band of quilting friends''...

Now to clean up my mess in the games room and move back into my sewing room...
