After the bushfires a couple of months ago there was a call out for handmade cotton mittens for injured and burned Koalas. Now Wildlife rescuers are in need of soft cotton pouch liners for orphaned joeys. These were super easy to whip up. I made 5 sizes with a thrifted soft cotton flannette sheet.

Such a great thing to do!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it, Joolz. My very old machine is on the brink but it will still sew a straight line, thankfully.
DeleteAre they still needing the pouches, Zena? I was about to make some mittens for the koalas when it was announced that they had more than enough just after the fires. Your pouches look just great. Straight lines are so 'yesterday' anyway ....says she who is straight line challenged. LOL!
ReplyDeleteThank you. Yes still in need of joey pouches, Nanna Chel. They were inundated with Koala mittens because they got good media coverage.
DeleteYou are a good egg Zena. I like that. xx
ReplyDeleteThose poor little Joeys and Koalas! Such simple acts of kindness to help them out xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Mama Shara. So true, small acts of kindness can make a difference.
