Softies for Mirabel 2009!
Yes Softie-Makers, it is that time of the year once again - Softies for Mirabel for 2009 has just been launched by Meet Me At Mikes!

This is the third year of this successful appeal. The Mirabel Foundation assists children who have been orphaned or abandoned due to parental illicit drug use and are now in the care of extended family (kinship care). In a nut-shell, the appeal is asking for you to donate a handmade softie to be sent to Mikes by December 10, 2009. Mikes will then co-ordinate with the Mirabel Foundation to distribute the softies to the children that the Foundation are supporting, just in time for Christmas!
This is a wonderful cause and I do hope you will get involved this year. If you have any questions about the appeal itself, please go over here for all the details. You can also add a picture of your handmade donation to the Softies for Mirabel Flickr Group (and see what others have been making).
And if you need to find a softie to make for the appeal . . . well, that’s what we’re here for!!

That elephant is adorable… kinda Dumboish but more interesting! Is there a pattern or tut somewhere?
