Ooooooohhhhh… just popped over to the (MASA) Coffee Shop on FaceBook and found some lovely WIPs (Works in Progress) there for the MASA “Butterflies for Kids with Cancer” Project.
This project is in support of Little Fighters Cancer Trust and is running from March until the end of August, when the Top 10 (20) will be chosen and submitted to LFCT to raise additional funds by auction or raffles. The balance of the mosaics will be put up in paediatric oncology wards all over the country to brighten up the wards a bit with beautiful colourful butterflies.
Here are some of the WIPs
