24.01.2022 Update from our Vice-President Jenny: This gorgeous basketful of bears were made with the participants at Maldon Hospital Day Group Maldon. Koala Bear Pin Cushions made out of socks, wool and panty hose material. The ears are made by cutting off the heel and cutting this piece in half and then folding and stitching into position. The group had great fun doing these bears together with members of Phoenix Chewton CWA as they formed the basis for conversation, reminisces and interaction. The group loved the idea that they were contributing to the preparation of gifts for the international guests in Melbourne in 2019 at the Associated Country Women Of the World International Conference.
