Hello GOGs, I hope everyone is having a wonderful Friday, ready for the weekend.
Yesterday we had a small wrapping (party) ‘working bee’ of the small Vax Toy Challenge. As a community we’ve so far had just over 1000 toys gifted! 
It’s an incredible effort by everyone! We’ve had some incredible feedback about how effective they have been so far, and have helped so many children get their vaccine, but also how they help parents and very importantly, medical staff. We’ve also had feedback that the Worry Worms have been a great hit and that the nurses have especially loved the Worry Worms with the squishy bobble stuffed head. So, if you’re feeling up for the challenge, give it a shot
As you can see, I’ve had fun playing with size and texture!

Stay safe and keep on stitching.

I would love to join your group but I cant wear a mask as I am asthmatic. When do you think you will remove the need for masks?

Hi Lucinda, Thanks for reaching out! At our ANU Working Bees and Taylor Craft and Conversation we are required to wear masks as per the University and Department of Education Covid19 regulations. If you have a medical exemption however, this should be fine. Our Dickson workshop has no mask regulations. If you have any other questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us again. Cheers, Mary
