A Special Fabric Collection called "LAURA"

I am in the process of creating a new collection of patchwork fabrics dedicated to my beautiful friend, Laura, who has unfotunately spent a significant amount of time in hospital lately, caused by Mytochondrial Disease.  As Laura is in Victoria and I am in South Australia, I have been unable to visit her in hospital and this just breaks my heart.  During the past couple of months I have thought about my dear friend constantly, wishing I could be there for her.  Fortunately Laura has a wonderful family and group of friends over in Victoria who have been there to comfort her.  Laura has a lovely, gentle, caring, beautiful infectous personality and I would like to think that I have captured this in my upcoming fabric collection.

 

I hope to raise awareness of Mytochondrial Disease which effects the nervous system and muscle development of sufferers.  I have set up a crowdfunding project for this collection on the Pozible site.  Please visit Pozible to learn more about how I hope to raise funds for this project so I can donate to the Australian Mytochondrial Disease Foundation to help find a cure.
