My daughter Isabelle was passionate about baby dolls when she was a pre-teen and even as she grew older would never part with any of her collection. She also had a love for cuddly toys all her life and would always come home from any trip with an addition to the family. For reasons we never did find out they were all (with a few special exceptions) called either Angela or Suzi! It is now 4 1/2 years since we lost her so we decided as a family to use some of this collection to raise funds for CRY, Izzy would certainly have approved.
Hence the advent of the Angela and Suzi stall. Our first selection of cuddlies were offered for donations at a local Table Top sale. We raised £49 not bad for a very dreary cold day. We have plenty left for another couple of sales and there will always be some special ones staying in our home. I have included photos of the event plus a bedraggled collection drying after their trip to the washing machine.
