I know that I don't have to point out to people the various ways they can help the people of Haiti. As usual people across blogland are doing what they can to help, be that by monetary donations, or by raising awareness.
But I thought I might share with you the work of Craft Hope . Craft hope have an Etsy shop where they are selling handmade items , donated by all sorts of crafters and artists. 100% of proceeeds will be going to Doctors without Borders.
You might want to pop over and take a look, buy an item or even make an item donation yourself.
Little Miss Lucy, pictured above has been offered and I expect she will make her way into the shop as Crafthope process all the donations. is in the shop now and even though the listing says post to US I am happy to post anywhere at all....

Good on you Jodi!! x
Miss Lucy is darling, and what a nice thing to do, Jodie. So far I've just sent a $$ donation, but a craft donation sounds like a great idea. Miss Lucy will be glad to get out of the heat in that warm coat and scarf! :>}
Thanks Jodie, I am going there right now, Let us all help and raise a lot of money. Miss Lucy is divine.
Good on you Jodi. Money is definately what they need alright. It is just so terrible. but it also shows the goodness in people around the world.
Oh thanks for the nod. Perhaps you should send them the quilt you offered to my cousin?
oh good, off to check the links! I feel so helpless here but so overwhelmed by the destruction over there. Off now, she is a real cutie! you are so generous!

Miss Lucy and you both are sweet! The people there need al the help they can get.
Miss Lucy is such a sweetie, and you are such a generous soul, Jodie. She's not on the site now so I guess she has gone to a new good home; lucky new owners!
Miss lucy is gone.................
Good on you Jodie.
She is just adorable and I see already to make her way to a new home. My little blankie was gone in just a few hours and I am heading out into the rain to the post office right now. I think that this is the perfect way to show that craft really can make a difference and the Anne Frank quote that Jade used on the Craft Hope website was so fitting!
Unfortunately I was too late she even had red hair and was called Lucy can't believe it
I was too late... I have made a purchase though and I think this is such a wonderful idea. I hope Miss Lucy has gone to a good home, she was adorable. This is so good of you to do this.
Misss Lucy is so gorgeous ... I looked for her but she seems to be gone and I would have loved to get her. What a wonderful thing to do.
Great idea, think you're the first Australian blog to do this, i've seen a few in America. I'll get my children to choose a few things in the morning. Lovely idea. Jodie you're totally ace & we can all move on from Ernst, i've been thinking of him & his little red sack. Sop, love Posie
I've been quietly following your blog since I saw the blurb in Ready Made magazine in the US. Thank you for sharing about Craft Hope! Some of my handmade scarves may be offered for their site.
Thanks for the link, Jodie.

Well done Jod, it's a fabulous idea. I'm off to check out the links now
I was thinking last night that if I find the lovely doll I 'misplaced' after the Market that I would give her to Craft Hope, but will I ever find her? In the meantime I'll pop over and check out the link(s), thanks Jodie xo
Miss Lucy is GORGEOUS! And so well named ;o)
What a lovely way to help Haiti.
