"If you can count the number of projects you have going , you need to begin another, so you have a varied range of complexity from the very simple 'mind-less' ones to those that demand undivided attention." (Laura Early).

Fund raising stitches.

A lot of you will know about Gaynors. fund raising efforts for the Irish Cancer Society , if not , please got to her blog and check it out .
 Gaynor has designed several charts , which she is offering for a small donation towards her fund raising efforts. she is pretty busy though , and has a lot of other designs buzzing around her head, so asked for volunteers to stitch up some models.
 I was lucky enough to be asked to stitch up Fight Like A Girl ,and here it is .
 I chose the pink aida to stitch on , so the daisies would show up better .

  I decided to make it into a bookmark, though it could also be a hanger as the backing fabric is pretty stiff .
 It is backed with the fabric it is laying on .
I am really pleased with how it turned out , and have offered it to Gaynor towards her fundraising , so if you are interested in getting this , or even stitching it yourself, along with the other charts, go over to Gaynors blog and see for yourself . ~The charts is a pretty good size for a phone or ipod case too , so multi-purpose .
 Thanks for looking ,
# Cath
