Hey Quiltvillians:β£
β£
Remember when March 2020 hit and the world stopped? πβ£
β£
And we didn't know what to do to keep ourselves from doom scrolling and feeling helpless? πͺβ£
β£
I presented a mystery for our Unity quilt, while I was sewing just one step ahead of everyone else - because I do crazy things on the fly like that.π€ͺβ£
β£
I've been working hard and furious with these string hearts in the colors of the Ukrainian flag for nearly a week. I still have several more to go, but I started thinking:π€β£
β£
Would you like to make them with me? Would you like to sew along step by step as I post directions for each part on my blog over the course of 4 to 5 weeks?β£
β£
We would work with one step at a time, you could use your stash for it or swap strips with friends to get enough yellow/blue/neutral. πΊπ¦ππππΊπ¦β£
β£
Even further - if your guild or group made blocks, and assembled the quilt together, they could raffle it off and donate the money to the Ukraine charity of their choice. π€β£
β£
I need a couple of weeks to get my top together so I can share it with you and you will know what we are doing.βοΈβ£
β£
Look for the first part to drop on Friday, March 25th with additional parts to go live each Friday until we are done.πβ£
β£
Each part will also include a link to a charity benefiting Ukraine that you can donate directly to.ππβ£
β£
Even if you don't donate, you can participate in making blocks to become a group quilt to benefit where proceeds are most needed.β£
β£
My brain is racing - more info to come later. Stay tuned!β£
