It’s that time of year again,
Fall Quilt Market (& post-season baseball) in Houston!
This is not the first time that we’ve shared downtown Houston with baseball fans.
I hope the Astros do well in the series,
& if you’re attending International Fall Quilt Market,
I hope you stop by Booth #136 & check out my new quilts & their patterns!
I’ll be back next week with images of the new quilts,
but you can check them out on my website now.
Just Keep Sewing…

Welcome to the
#SewPINK 2019 Blog Hop,
~~~~~
~~~~~
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month (BCAM), and for 2019, ByAnnie.com is proud to announce that we are raising the banner of awareness worldwide with the #SewPINK initiative with over 20 celebrity bloggers.
I got involved because I too have family & friends that have been diagnosed with breast cancer,
some more than once.
The #SewPink Initiative was created by ByAnnie.com LLC to raise awareness for breast cancer during October’s Breast Cancer Awareness month. They have pledged to raise funds to donate to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation through sales and to promote action through giveaways.

Years ago I designed a quilt pattern, “Quilt For Hope“
for quilters to make a quick lap size quilt
to comfort friends and family that may be battling breast cancer.
It’s one of my signature Quilt-as-you-sew patterns so it’s quick & easy!
It could also be made in any color to associate it to another type of cancer.
Sewing it with a flannel or Snuggle fabric on the back makes it even more cuddly.
