day 31 ..... LAST PINK RIBBON DAY

This is the last day of this October month
A well spent month I could say.
I really didn't know where it all came from ...
After preparing the little felted or stitched pieces
there was wonder what way it would go next.

Only for the national felting day and for Man's birthday party
I made something in advance 
.....
All the others were made or stitched on that very day.

I'm glad I made it !
I'm a bit tired, but satisfied.
A few more Jewels to make
for dear people who are waiting patiently
till their special wish will be fulfilled ...
Then, I can count all of that together,
with that : all the EXTRA money a lot of people gave,
so I'll know how much money can be transferred to
the Pink Ribbon Fund.
(then I'm truly finished   ;-)  !)

My last  PINK  RIBBON  Textile Jewel for day 31

A wet felted hollow gray brooch, stitched with cotton
and with different small beads.
(5,5 cm)

A quiet star for this last day !

For a donation of

€ 10

SOLD  !

(or more)
this distinguished gray jewel
can be yours
to keep for yourself or to give away
to someone dear to you !
All you need to do is send me an email at

ALL the money goes to (you know) the Pink Ribbon Fund !
