Not that you can probably tell, but I've just had a clean-up (of sorts) of my room, which basically means you can now see the carpet!The two main projects on the go are a little dress for my girl (one of the items on the back of my chair) and on the table, a half finished dress for me. The dress fabric was given to me by someone very lovely and thoughtful; it is a vintage polished cotton of beautiful quality, she knew I would appreciate it!
You can also see my button jars on the window sill. I love these; the jars are all the same yummy French jam jars with a red and white lid ... my extended family have been eating a lot of jam lately to aid my jar collection (and my need to have them looking all the same!!). Lucky my sister-in-law found some on special!!
Check out Robyn's and also Eliza's from Elven Hair too.
Last week I donated 50% of my Etsy sales to the Red Cross Victorian Bushfire Appeal. Although I only sold two things (making my donation only $19 ), I know that every little bit will help.
(this little cutie made his way down to Melbourne this week)
I am constantly warmed by the stories of generous Australians all pitching in. A year 5 student at my son's school, off her own bat, organised a 'free-dress' day for the entire school to donate funds for the Red Cross. They were able to raise over $900.

Where's the mess? All I can see acres of spic and span carpet - and neat spaces galore. I bet you even iron your family's socks.
Seriously, what a lovely work space you have created Ali. I am most envious! Thanks for joining in the fun.
Your space is so tidy Ali! It looks lovely! Now I'm wondering if you do iron socks! I think I may have some of those jam jars. I'll have a look & if I find them I'll pass them along to you for your button obsession. Congrats on the Little Jelly sales last week & donating funds to the Bushfire Appeal. Every little bit DOES help. Enjoy the rest of your week :)
