Calling all QUILTERS, STITCHERS, and anyone that can thread a needle...or use a sewing machine...


My friend Asha alerted me to this effort...and I certainly plan to send in some blocks to support it. I hope that you will consider to do the same. The blocks are simple...a WHITE RECTANGLE with 2-red X's on it. Simple and meaningful.

In these trying times, we all get overwhelmed in our daily routines...and in debating issues of the day with each other. BUT, I'm hoping that we all can come together and join each other for such a worthy cause. Please go to the links within this post...and choose to participate!

From a few blocks...many can be made. A small effort can make a difference!

Millefiori Jumbo Blocks #3 and #4


Got two more blocks finished. Have one more to go, but have to put it aside for a few days...getting behind in my chores. :)






Hope you have time this week for a little sewing!

Hugs :)
