Dolls For DoctorsOriginally uploaded by Sew SydneyIt has been a fast paced week! More sick kids and a much needed girls lunch in Manly has kept me going! Really, when will we stop catching all these gross bugs?We have decided to put our house on the market next year for auction. All of a sudden there is just so much to do on top of a already crazy time of year. Ahhhhh!!!!
Here are some photos of the recent project. I really wanted to make something that I could auction on Ebay to raise money for charity. I hope I can find a few bidders for these home-made, soft dolls that are sewn in a garland. There are eight in a row and I will post lots of photos of them on my flickr site.
Tonight I will organize the Ebay auction and hopefully send some gorilla marketing to friends and family to get some bids!
I will donate all money to the charity Medicins Sans Frontieres (local Australian chapter). What else can I say other than I saw what they do on an Oprah segment with Anderson Cooper and it brought me to tears. They are an amazing organization that goes where not many venture to assist. Here is the story on the Oprah website: http://www.oprah.com/tows/slide/200601/20060131/slide_20060131_284_108.jhtml
Will keep you posted on the dolls tonight or tomorrow with Ebay details!
Those dolls are gorgeous, I’m sure that they’ll raise a stack of money for your very worth while charity. What a wonderful thing to do, you are such a thoughtful lady.
great idea !
