Here are the lovely bags from Colleen Clapperton. It is always so good to be able to add a  name to the photo, and to then talk on the phone.Thanks Colleen for your offer to sew more bags with some of the donated fabrics.The mauve bag with a linen curved band was especially lovely.
These came in the post from Alison Laurence in Auckland.Such bright colours that will be so welcome. The other 4 bags are more from Marj Ussher, applique and bright facings at the top  just add a difference  to each bag.
a delightful bag with hand sewn  toggles on the cords was  sewn by Val and Hannah Devlin. Hannah, I see you are 9 years of age, wonderful to have a younger lady help with this, your card has gone inside the bag.
Today is dismal, cold and wet. Surely the snow will come soon and bring joy to the skiers.

Cheers from Jean
