Welcome to Sew Red for Women's Block 1! Sew Red for Women was created to raise awareness of Heart Disease among women by way of creativity and camaraderie within the modern sewing community.
From February 3rd, 2012 to January 3rd 2013, Sew Red for Women will feature an original quilt block designed especially for you by some of today's most inspiring designers & bloggers. A special link is provided to hop on over to the blogger's site for details and instructions for completing the featured block.
And this month's block is presented by Leah from Burgundy Buttons! And since today, February 3rd; is National Wear Red Day, hopefully you are reading this in your favorite rose-colored gear!
The Block: My Chevron Heart
This block embodies the classic look of chevrons positioned to represent the diverse heart of a woman. And the heart of women is why we are here!
Visit Burgundy Buttons' Blog for details about making this block! Burgundy Buttons is also selling fabric packs to make the Block as well.
Don't forget to head on back here on March 3rd for Block Two featured by Fat Quarterly's Tacha Bruecher of Hanies Quilts.
Until then, have a heart healthy day!
Will you be offering finishing kits? How big will the finished quilt be? I am making this for a charity red dress gala that my sorority sponsors every year. The forget-me-not is one of our flowers and I would love to back the quilt with this fabric.
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's just me, but both links for Burgundy Buttons seem to be broken. I'll do a search, but wanted to let you know.
ReplyDeleteI just received my little kit in the mail and love it! Can't wait to get it done :-)
