I've designed, digitised and stitched these for some more church fundraisers ; the notebooks cost just 26p (50 cents!) each to buy and I've covered them in a mock suede fabric and hope they'll bring in a decent profit; the spectacle / mobile phone pouch has a picture of St Andrew taken from one of the stained-glass windows (the church is dedicated to St Andrew, patron saint of fishermen amongst other things) I've only made a few of those so far, don't know how well they'll sell but it's worth a try. Love

Beautiful! *4U

Well, the church garden party had to be held in the village hall because after a week of lovely sunshine today it POURED with rain! Even so we had a good turn out and all the stuff I'd made sold out! I don't know how much money we raised, I'll let you know as soon as I find out, which will probably be at church tomorrow. I'm still sewing - it's only seven weeks to the next major fundraising event, the Street Fair - I think He owes us decent weather for that one! Love

Oh Dianne, these are lovely - they will be great items for your fund raiser. I really like the St. Andrew stained glass window pouch, too. I have had you on my mind and hoped you were not taking on too much alone. *4U

Good luck tomorrow Dianne, these items look lovely and should sell well. I love the stained glass window. The colours are so brilliant. Flower for you.

Beautiful job. Everything should sell real well

These are lovely Diane. Your trip gave you some rest and inspiration. Good luck tomorrow. I think these will do very well.

... just been out to walk the dogs and took some more photos of the church from different angles - I have some new ideas so if they work out as I hope to do them I'll have more to show you soon! Love Dianne x x x

Welcome back. Did you have a nice holiday. Came back with a lot of inspiration?I think these are great. They should sell very well.This really deserves more than one flower, but that is all I can give you.

I had a lovely holiday, thank you. I've not slept much since, though - seriously buring the midnight oil! It's the church annual garden party tomorrow and although our main fundraiser this year is in August I thought I'd try to make some things to sell tomorrow too!
