    My tuppence worth :D I think that your prize, soblivion, is great for the rugby club! What you have to bear in mind is that even if the 'tough macho' rugby blokes wouldn't necessarily appreciate your hard work, their girlfriends and wives probably would!

    I know quite a few members of our local rugby club and know that they all appreciate chocolate!

    Well done and try your best not to worry so much about it! ;)

    Well done both of you, they are fantastic and I would be very proud to have made such lovely prizes. My kids would always avoid the alcohol prizes as 'boring' and go for chocolate everytime!

    Thanks again for the nice comments, today I showed my neighbour the bouquet and I made a hamper too and she loved them and gave me £5 to get her some raffle tickets. So armed with all your lovely comments and hers too it boosted my confidence and I made an Easter one for the raffle aswell. It's filled with choccies and the bunny I crochet on a pot which is filled with mini eggs.

    Please come and live with me. You'd be very handy to have around when the shops are shut and my youngest tells me 'Mum...I forgot I need a blah blah blah for first thing tomorrow. :D

    Lovely btw.

    Agree with all the comments - both items look absolutely fabulous and I think it is just nice that someone actually WANTS to do something towards fundraising for the clubs their kids belong to, cos most of the parents at the rugby club my son belongs to would just "keep forgetting" to donate a prize until it was all over:rolleyes: :D .

    Very clever ladies you both are:D

    Thanks ladies.

    I only showed 2 chaps tonight, because of using the club logo and photo of the boys - there's rules and regulations to follow but all was okay and they were very impressed and with the hamper too. (this is men:eek: )

    So far for prizes they have 3 bottles of wine and it's on Friday. So I'm pleased I did it. I figure I'm not going to worry so much now. I think at least I made an effort.
