PURPLE DAY

Did you know that Monday 26th March is  Global Epilepsy Awareness Day?
It's also known as PURPLE DAY.
 I've been busy making lots of purple items, and  more than a few with out purple lol
Staff at school have kindly agreed to wear something purple in exchange for a small donation to our charity.


You could do the same. Email me for a printable money box, where your colleagues can pop their loose change or make a donation at any of these websites.

 Iphone socks

 Egg cosies- they may not have much purple in, but I thought they might sell well, with Easter coming up

 Hector the Scottie 

 A few brooches, top picture is closest colour-wise

I also need to thank a couple of people. One is the Grandma of some children I work with, and very generously made this beautiful bunny, for me to sell.

He will be on sale here Henniesnimbleneedles for £10

The other thank you  is for the lovely Karen of JustkJewellery who has offered to donate the selling price of this gorgeous bracelet to Rich's memorial fund if it sells before March 26th

Isn't it stunning and at only £17.50. Go buy it now. xx

Certainly over here at the hen coop it is.
I have an order for over 40 items from a lovely lady down under. Obviously I needed to make a start on those.
But you know me, dear blog, can't resist a good pattern.
My good friend Sandy of  http://www.ravelry.com/stores/phoenixknits  needed someone to test her latest pattern.
