Two women who live up the hill from me (they are a couple) both have breast cancer. They were diagnosed within a month of each other. Since they have to travel for treatments, the community held a fund raiser to help them out. One of the things we did was a silent auction. My intent was to donate this tote bag for the auction, but I didn't finish in time, so now I'm not sure what to do with it. I just might keep it. By the way, we raised $9000 for them :thumbup:

I found single block squares for the ribbon and the heart, made them 12" each and used the tote bag pattern from our mystery tote last October to turn the squares into a bag.


One side is a ribbon...

Trying to show the lining, made from some fabric with the breast cancer hearts on it.
