Cancer fundraiser results.......

 Still playing catch up...........

26th October I held a Cancer fundraiser on Zoom.............

I have lost several close family members to cancer and one is currently fighting cancer again.........

Last time I did this I co-hosted with Jude 18mths ago and mostly raising money for Breast Cancer Network Australia........

Once again to join in you had to make a donation to a cancer organisation.....which ever one you liked so long as it supported cancer.............

During the day I got everyone to say who they donated to and what there organisation did.............

Everyone emailed me their donation amount and if international I converted to AUD..........

I had to do some watering during the day and I found this beautiful hippeastrum flowering............

Cheese and nibbles is always enjoyed............

Stunning and flowering madly.............

I worked on my bright Fat 1/4 mixer quilt..........mostly Ruby Star with a few others thrown in and a few from my stash.............

Cutting and piecing some during the day..............

I did spend a lot of time just chatting.........but that's fine also.......

The last stragglers................

we had a very long day sewing..........

6am-8.30pm.........

We were nearly at $1000 at the end of the day and someone made another donation to kick us over...........but then a few more donations came in after the day..........

CONGRATS together we raised $1132.71...........

18 joined on the day.......

plus a few more girls made donations that didn't get to join us.........

THANKYOU EVERYONE 

Together we can make a difference..............

Catch you later..........

zoom $$$$ results.........

Sorry to the girls who were on zoom at the time and I think Sue tried to join later.......my sudden rush off to work....lets just say it was a big week and leave it at that.........onto the good stuff..........

I was working on cutting some more blocks for Chapel Street.......

Slowly they are adding up...........still have not located the first couple of blocks I made in Qld last year.......they will turn up.........

Zoom had a constant group popping in and out all day............I think we had about 18 people join in and a few more donated that could not join..............

For those over seas I just converted to AUD to get an amount 

the great news is we raise $406.38 

for Breast Cancer Network Australia and some international breast cancer charities............

that is a wonderful effort........thankyou to those who donated........

It was a pretty sunrise............

Jude's fundraising is mostly done...........

All up with Jude's 21st birthday celebrations she had raised about $3200 and add our collection for the cause that's about $3600.......amazing effort............

the good thing is Jude is a still donating a % of sales of the goods on her blog link here, here and here...........you might be able to find some lovely fabrics to join your stash...........she also has numerous kits cuts too...........you can grab something this weekend.....sale ends 28th Feb

once I had the blues cut I started cutting into these brights.......

didn't get a photo of where I got up to..............

Anyway have a great weekend.........
