Medulloblastoma

I have been having a little break from sewing and my little online shops as my little brother (28) fights a brave battle with Cancer. Medulloblastoma is a rare form of brain cancer and is mostly found in children. We found out about his cancer in August 2009, his tumor was removed and he has been having radiation and chemotherapy, however 4 weeks ago he had a scheduled scan and found the tumor had returned. Steve underwent brain surgery for the second time and they removed as much tumor as possible, but his recovery from this surgery will be a much harder battle. We travel to Sydney as much as possible to spend time with Steve and my mum who has been caring for him for the last 10 months. We hope for a cure and know he has the best possible doctors in the country. Love you Steve xxx

Schoolhouse Tunic


My new project is going to be this Schoolhouse tunic by Sew Liberated. I am waiting patiently for it to come in the mail! This will be a challenge for me, I have not made any 'adult' clothes yet besides some wrap skirts. I am very excited to try it as it is a style I am sure to wear. Watch this space and I will add some pics when I finish it.

Very First Post


The scary first post... I'm new to blogging and hope i will pick it up pretty quick. Think I'll start with a picture of the clutches I make and sell on www.madeit.com.au/littleribbons and http://www.lisaslittleribbons.etsy.com/ I love to sew and have been trying out a few other crafty projects as well.
