Pat Sloan: Crossroads Charity Quilt The Chain Block pattern!

The next section of our Charity project 'Crossroads' is the Chain that beautifully sets the whole quilt!

The Theme this year, Crossroads, is reflective. I love that about a project. Where each month I take a moment to think about things, think about what I'm grateful for. 

Listen to Joanna, who designed the quilt, talk with Kimberly Jolly of the Fat Quarter shop about how she tried to bring the different parts of the antique blocks into a fresh new quilt design for us. 

Then the 2nd half of the video they show you how you can make the block .

 

The BEST NEWS is that we've met our initial goal of $10,000 - woo hoo!!! We all would love to raise even more funds for babies in need, so please continue to donate $5 per pattern download. Thank you for helping all of us make a difference in the lives of children and their families. You and all the Fat Quarter Shop customers are the best!

I am making a full size quilt to auction for the charity with the fabrics above... it's actually done an at the 'spa' in Memphis TN waiting it's turn to be quilted! 

This year the charity we are supporting is the March of Dimes foundation and we will be raising funds to help their efforts to fight premature births. We hope you will sew along and donate to this amazing cause through our fundraising link:
