New Beginnings kit

 My "New Beginning's" kit is finished and ready to mail to Australia for one of those quilters who lost everything in the floods. I had enough of not being able to sew myself, so I spent the day moving things around to make room in my studio to get to my machine, and thankfully last night, I was able to work on this project. I have been lamenting over not having my room to sew in, but thinking of those who don't have a home at all now, makes my plight seem pretty insignificant.  I am happy to have heard from some of my Aussie friends that they are ok, but I continue to keep the others in my thoughts and prayers.

I found this great pattern in my Art to Heart "Sew Necessary" book. It seemed to be just what was needed to give someone a fresh start. Won't you please join in and help a fellow quilter in need? Visit the Gum Tree Designers, and lend a hand.

    I love you Moose quilt and logo.
    You are such a good person for making a gift for a quilter in Australia.
    It is sad to see the terrible condition in that country.
    I am very glad to know you.
    Take care.
    Betty

    What a wonderful caddy to send to someone in Australia...they will feel very touched and loved at this difficult time. You are inspiring me to do more than just donate $$.

    In stitches,
    Teresa :o)

    What a thoughtful gift for a quilter -- someone is going to be very grateful to you for doing this.
