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 designed the setting.Then the 2nd half of the video they show you several techniques including how to use triangle papers, which is fun to learn!
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!
My full size quilt above will be auctioned for the charity, I'll take some more photos soon to share
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:
