Striped dragon hood.

This became somewhat a community project! Av coloured the yarns and decided he wanted me to make him a dragon hat. The boys picked a button and my 6 year old sewed on the button.


He was asking why I didn't use the sewing machine to sew the button on so I showed him that it's easy enough to do it by hand. He was surprised at how quick and easy it was.




I wasn't too sure about the stripes but the colours are amazing and makes for a fun hat. The heat has been on lately yet Av still wants to wear the hat. It is knit in aran organic merino.

My Birth, My Choice

This post is from from my other blog here

 Just a few things on the latest in regards to the amendments that will affect homebirth and therefore birth choices in Australia.

Greens-rally-in-support-of-midwives

Amendment controls women

Doctors-to-be-in-charge-of-midwives-homebirthing-and-of-course-women



My husband, the 2 youngest boys and I supported the rally which took place in Werribee at Julia Gillard's MP office. We are in this video at about 40 seconds.



It was a good turn out on a rather warm day. I am feeling quite bitter and let down about the Goverment's lack of understanding of what this will mean for women and society. I am concerned for my daughter in particular, she deserves to choose for herself.




Every woman, every choice
