So we are moving to Australia, as the Mr has accepted a job there! When we have settled in a bit and I've plugged my sewing machine in again, I will be back on here. Maybe there'll be some new inspiration, living in a totally different place again. Its the right move for us, the next step. You've got to go where the opportunities are and make the most of things now!
If you are interested in seeing what we are up to - I've started a private blog (which sounds like a bit of a contradiction!). You'll need to let me know if you want to be able to log into that. Can't promise it'll be that interesting. Its probably going to be more of a record of things, for the children (and us) to look back on.
But I'll be back on my A Little Vintage blog as soon as I start making a few things again!
Because of our move, I am not able to put any dolls up for the Handmade Charity auctions for the Queensland Disaster Relief. So I've sent off a bundle of dolls and softies to Steph for Hope Softies. They will go directly to the children in the shelters, who have lost their homes and belongings. If you can make even one toy, please email Steph to get the address to send them to.

Congratulations and good luck with the move Jennie. I'll be looking forward to your return (hopefully very soon)!
Good luck with the move Jennie! I'm quietly thrilled you'll be on the same continent ... though I know everyone in New Zealand will miss you.
I'd be chuffed to join your private blog (makeminemidcentury@gmail.com) but if you get too many joiners (limited to 100), you can drop me off!
Wow! How exciting for you! Look forward to hearing how you're settling in!
This is all very exciting! I wish you well during your move & hope hope you and your family will love it here in Australia! Good luck to you & I look forward to hearing all about it when you settle xx
Good luck with the move, Jennie! My zipper purse arrived yesterday... I love it!! Thank you so much :) Bon voyage! Kx
Glad to know you're OK, I was begginning to worry.
Aren't you gorgeous sending off some dolls for Hope Softies.
I'm so excited you're moving to Australia!! Even though we won't be in the same state, you'll still be that bit closer. I hope you like it here, and it offers you some new creative ideas.

How's it all going in Australia?? I guess you're heartbroken for your earth quaked NZ. Looking forward to your posts when you're ready, love Posie
