Donation Acknowledgements FY2012 #11 - Fabric Collection from a Perth Lady

A couple of weeks ago I received an email from a Terry Medley who had a friend whose passion was sewing but was dying. She asked Terry to try to find a home for her collection of materials. It would have been great to receive them and make them into dresses but the collection was just too many and too much to send to Sydney but Terry was happy  to drop off the materials to someone/some group in Perth  who could use it to sew dresses.  
Then I thought about the coming Sewing Bee event going to be held in Perth in March and contacted the organizers if they were interested in the fabric collection of which they were.

Here are the bundles and bundles of collection from the lady whose sewing days are over delivered by Terry to Karin Maltby in Perth. It has found a home in Dress A Girl Around the World - Dress A Girl Sydney and Australia through the Perth group. What a wonderful legacy she will be leaving behind to the less fortunate children around the world and the number of smiles we will be seeing from the hundreds of children who will be dressed by this collection. Thank you Terry.
