There are two parts of my articles today, My FREE Block of the month & the Charity sewalong.
Block #5 is about the people who make it happen, the Astronauts!
We could spend years on the Astronauts that make space exploration come alive for us. At our post today I share about 2 of them, below is more about Astronaut Karen Nyberg.

I was so lucky to see that article about asking to interview Karen Nyberg about her mission. Because I wrote to her, we all have a wonderful slice of quilting history documented on my show
Share a photo of your block #5 below by June 1, 2019 and I will select ONE random person to win a mystery prize each month!

** Charity block #7 **
On the 1st and the 15th we'll be sewing a set of blocks for the Charity Quilt along to support this year’s charity Make-A-Wish Central & South Texas!
I have a tip for making our block this week.. keep reading!
The Fat Quarter shop is offering all of the patterns to make this quilt for free, they just ask that you donate $5 per pattern download to this amazing organization and 100% of the proceeds from the pattern downloads will be donated to Make-A-Wish Central & South Texas. The Fat Quarter Shop partnered with Moda Fabrics again who has generously worked with the them since they started doing these quilt alongs to benefit different organizations.
My quilt is being made with Sweet Tea Fabric, and will be auctioned to raise even more funds.
