    This year Blue Peter are appealing for decorated T Shirts to use as hospital gowns for children having cleft operations. Every gown sent in saves £3 which means 50 gowns will enable one more child to get an operation. :)
    These crafts are my hobbies so I bought 4 TShirts and designed then hand stitched the embellishments. The fiddliest part was sewing the tapes down the back of the gowns! I really enjoyed doing them and will make some more!

    Thanks for the lovely comments.
    Marley I would love to see some of your work and hear about the charities you help :luv:

    I just think if we all tried to give a bit more the world would be a better place.:thumb:
