Woo Hoo! My Support Group Quilt raised $1050 on the Ebay Auction! Thank you to all who have donated!!

Each year I try to donate toward some kind of cancer research.  I have lost friends and family to a few different types of cancer, and this year my focus is on breast cancer.   When Fat Quarter Shop asked me to make the sample quilt several months ago for their new Support Group Quilt Along I was honored.  I made the quilt above that was photographed for the pattern cover, and I knew from the beginning I was planning to auction it off to raise money, so I was really glad that Fat Quarter Shop agreed to do the auction for me. 

Below I will share a few of the pictures I took while putting this quilt together, and once complete I loaded it to my Handi Quilter long arm machine and did the long arm quilting with the Daisy Delight digital pantograph, those little flowers are only 2" big so it is covered with lots of beautiful texture!  After quilting I prepared super scrappy binding & then attached it and finished the final stitches by hand.  Tons of love went into this quilt, and I look forward to seeing how much we can raise for those women we love!   Link to bid below, thank you for bidding!

If you know someone who is struggling through the tough times of cancer please wrap them up with the love of a quilt.  The Support Group Quilt pattern was designed by Lori Holt in honor of her mother, who survived breast cancer, with literal symbols of support.  The pattern is available for you to use the prepared fabric kit, or you can purchased the pattern and sew with fabric from your stash.   

Please join me as I auction my quilt, with Fat Quarter Shop and Lori Holt, lets push to reach our $20,000 goal to help women at every step of the breast cancer journey.  (Fat Quarter Shop & Lori Holt will match up to $5,000 of the donations raised) 

Thanks SEW much!!
