Thank you ladies for remembering to donate, I hope you have lots of fun with the charts - and post lots of pictures!

Our very own Dawn is very kindly sending me some of her old magazines to make in to grab bags - so please, ladies and gentlemen, I am going to have more spare grab bags than I'm going to know what to do with, send me your addresses and get ready for some new charts to hit your doormats in exchange for charitable donations!

I'm so glad people are enjoying the charts they're receiving, and thank you everyone for making the charity donations :) Still a good number of grab bags left if anyone wants one (or indeed if anyone wants another one, after all there's no such thing as "too much" stash!)

Sending you a PM! Thanks so much for doing this. My mother-in-law is currently in treatment for ovarian cancer. I will be making a donation to St. Jude's Children's Hospital here in the states. It is a research hospital that has made amazing strides in combating childhood cancers.

Cheers!

I would love one!! Am going to pm you now. :)
I am thinking of choosing the American Cancer Society. Lost both my grandmother and my father to cancer and know that everyone is affected by it in one way or another. This is an amazing idea... Maybe you could connect with a popular site that sells kits/patterns and a charity of your choice and set up some sort of website to do this year-round.
Kudos to you, though, this is so sweet. :wub:
