The PossumPouches site is now up except for one little button, which will possibly be done in the next 24 hours. There is also a Facebook page ( link on blog) so please go and join. I now am hoping people will begin making donations, if not for July then for the following months as auctions and sales will be held every month. If you are not a WAHM then you may be interested in the Projects page which I need to complete; but you can contact me from the site if you knit or crochet and would like to help make items for the homeless, Salvation Army etc. These projects are being kept as simple as possible to allow many of you to join in without any pressure.
If you can see my profile picture on my Facebook page ( my own page, not the possumpouches one-you will find me in the PP fans list )you will notice I am holding a cloth doll. Her name was Jessamy, and she was part of a project I coordinated several years ago, in which Jessamy was posted from Australia to NZ, USA and UK where she was dressed by keen sewers before returning to Australia with her large wardrobe. The photo was used in our local paper and the dress was her "Gone With the Wind" outfit. She was then raffled to raise funds for Children's Medical Research Institute. I am pleased that July's auctions are going to Jeans for Genes Day, again in support of CMRI.
Please give generously either by donating an item for auction, or by bidding in those auctions which will take place the last week of July.

Possum Pouches Returns
After a break of around 9 months Possum Pouches is about to relaunch, just as soon as the website design is completed .
There is a big difference this time. Previously we made donations of part proceeds to charity and sold only our own items.
This time every cent from all sales and auctions is going to charity, that's 100%, and some of the items sold will be donated.
I am hoping WAHMS will generously donate special item/s for the monthly auctions and if anyone would like to donate for July's auctions please contact me asap. Although the site will possibly not be completely set up for a few more days the contact page will work now.
Auction week is the last full week of July and is in aid of Jeans for Genes Day which supports the Children's Medical Research Institute. I was involved in organising a fundraiser for this organisation several years ago and am thrilled to once again be helping them.
I hope my fellow wahms will donate items generously .
There will be other opportunities for people to help with charity donations such as knitting blanket squares and other items; that will also be explained on the site.
Please watch for the new website very soon.

WOOL SALE STARTS TODAY at OZEBABY POSSUMPOUCHES STORE
My clearance of top brand and quality hand dyed wool will start today and continue through the week. Postage will be added to listed price. Listings will be random due to the time it takes to photograph and sort everything, and also because I have other things taking my time at the moment, but I hope to clear it all this week.Prices are low, so there will be no further price reductions.Items must be paid for when purchased, no exceptions. If you want to check out the later listings and combine postage that is fine, but payment is still required for each package of wool as you purchase it, the first pack postage payment is required, successive packs payment for just the wool is required immediately and any additional postage will be billed at the end. I am sorry but I will not hold a package unless it is paid for up front straight after purchase; items will be relisted if no contact is made directly after purchase ( within the hour). Paypal payments are accepted with payment of pp fees, direct deposit preferred, DD receipt must be emailed at time of payment
