Breast Cancer Project

Carol Crago and I have spent a couple of days together lately. After testing a few blocks, Carol took the rest home and finished them, then this week we met again and stitched them all together, made the borders and here's the end result.....we've had a grand time laughing, sharing stories (You know how gramma's are!) and working on a project that is near and dear to my heart. 

Quilts for a Cause, Inc. has asked me to design a quilt that they will be marketing and selling from their website.  (All RIGHTS RESERVED) I will let all of you know where and when you will be able to purchase the pattern.  Most of us have been touched by Cancer.......so I hope you will support the sale of this pattern to raise money for cancer. All profits go to women's cancer.  Please tell all your friends about it as well.  Again, I will let you know where and when it's availble for purchase.

My mom died 4 years ago from Ovarian Cancer. I love the pattern and will be sure to buy one when they come out.

It sure was fun Lynda and the cause couldn't be a better one.

What a wonderful cause. Both my parents had cancer, different types, but it hits us all.

What a great quilt. I lost my mother-in-law to cancer. Thanks for your efforts, I'm sure it will be rewarded.

Just an update on this project. The quilt has been named......
"Twist 'n Shout"....the Quilts for a Cause group loves the quilt and they will be marketing it from their end. All sales go to women's cancer....so I'll keep you posted and let you know the when and where you can get your copy.
A special THANK-YOU to Carol Crago for her help with this project.
