Crafting for a cause

Together with a group of lovely ladies I know through a parenting forum, I am crafting for a cause. We are making items that orphaned Zimbabwe kids can play with and use.

I think I might make some taggie blankets, and some crayon cozy's, not sure what else.

I also am in a sewing swap with the forum ladies, its a softie swap, I have already had a go at a trial and it went ok, so I will give the real one a go soon, hopefully it turns out ok.

I made these last year, its a bit small but so cute, Its an old fleece blanket!

Crayon & Tissue Cozy

Thanks to Sarah over on Lets get crafty and cook I was shown this awesome tut from Skip to my lou, I thought I would have a go myself, What do you think?

I've also made a couple of the tissue cosy's from craftapoloza
