Jellybean Childrens Market Horsham

Last weekend we were very lucky to have

Jellybean Childrens Market come to Horsham.

It was a great opportunity for all the clever crafty people working away at home,

often selling their wares from behind a computer screen,

to get out in the public and show off their wares.

Here's my little shop, my one and only pic I took for myself, silly me

Handmade Gifts

A couple of Handmade Birthday Gifts for the boy's friends.

A Zipper Pouch for Alexander,

big enough to put a novel, ipod,

and any other goodies in.

Some matching bookmarks too.

A smaller one for Yasintsa, she was having a fruit themed party,

so I thought this strawberry fabric would be perfect.

I also framed a photo I had taken at our house of 2 best friends,

along with some nail polish and lip gloss.

Handmade Pizza Oven

My friend Michelle has a new oven.

Her hubby made this great Pizza Oven last year in their court yard.

He Googled and Youtubed and set to work.

Very clever indeed!

Still needs to put on some render,

but it has been getting lots of Pizza Action

And here it is in full swing,

cooking a sweet pizza, Nutella, Banana and Marshmallows

I think we need one too.

I'll add it to the list

I'm off to a local bloggers catch up :-)

Have a great day

Jacqueline.

Maybelle's Quilt

This is Maybelle, 11 year old daughter

of my lovely friend Bianca.

On the 31st October last year, Maybelle was diagnosed with

Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia

Bianca belongs to our Stitch and Bitch group,

even though she does not live here anymore,

she is still considered one of the girls.

So, one night in November, while stitching and bitching

we decided to make a quilt for Maybelle, together

First we met at Michelle's,

everyone bought along pinks and greens from their stash,

Louise bought her Drunkards Path template

and we started slicing and stitching

Next session was at Louise's house.

Here's Judy stitching away

And Louise, pressing seams

And here is Bianca and her 4 chickens,

I snaped this photo when I visited them up in Darwin last year.

While stitching away at this quilt,

we were busy chatting about Bianca's family and Maybelle's journey to date

Taking Shape

Another session, at Sandra's home this time,

pinning the quilt.

Next job was Michelle's, to make the binding

Then the quilt was passed on to me to machine quilt

Then I passed it back to Michelle and Sandra,

who took the quilt on a summer holiday to South Australia

with their families and started stitching on the binding,

then completed the binding back home.

Bron, who now lives in Melboune, sent up the label that she hand stitched,

Then I stitched it on...

And finally finished!

We were all very happy with the finished product

and each of us could easily have snaffled it for ourselves.

It was delivered to Maybelle a few weeks ago,

thanks to Granny Di the courier. 

I can not even begin to imagine what Maybelle and her family are going through,

the chemo, the hospital stays, the emotions, seperation from her friends and family.

But Maybelle is one Tough Cookie, very wise and mature for her young age.

Maybelle has a long road ahead,

but she is going to kick Leaukemia's Butt!
