Help for our Bushfire victims in South Australia

I have been working with a group at my local quilt shop making cot quilts for an Orphanage in Sri Lanka, and you know the old adage
"Charity begins at Home"..................

"Dear Maureen,

A few days ago I received a beautiful letter from a reader, Katrina Watters, who lives near Yorketown on Yorke Peninsular. Katrina wanted to do something positive for those women affected by the Black Tuesday bushfires and has requested donations of needlework supplies to help them get back on their feet.

Here is her letter (in part):

'Every Friday five of us very enthusiastic ladies meet and share our passion for needlework. After hearing about the Eyre Peninsula fire, we decided that we would love to help in some way and thought we could donate some of our excess needlework supplies ... books ... kits... just anything that might make someone's day a little brighter. If we get quite a bit, we hope to drive the 8 hour trip over and deliver it personally.'

If you have any supplies that may help, could you please send them to 'Bushfire Appeal', Country Bumpkin, 315 Unley Road, Malvern, South Australia 5061 and I will ensure Katrina receives them.

Thanks in advance for your generosity.

Warm wishes,


Margie Bauer
