Having dinner with a friend tomorrow and she is a survivor........so I thought that I would do a little PP and make her a pin.

Was just about finished and pressed it and (low and behold) there were black marks on it. Can't figure where they came from as the iron isn't old enough to have anything spitting from it.

Dipped it up and down in some sudsy water and they seemed to come out...

Thank goodness......

Here's the results.....

She will love it.

nice

Very nice. She will feel honored that you did that.

very nice, she will love it, great work :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

So beautiful! Where did you get the pattern? I know several breast cancer survivors.

What a wonderful idea. I bet she will love it.

That is darling for a survivor. I know she's someone special to you & hope you'll enjoy the dinner.

I will look and see if I can still find it...if I can't find where I got it, send me an email with our address and I will copy mine and send it out to you.

I will a send a post tomorrow and let you know if I find it.

MaryJane, what a thoughtful gift! How special.

Connecting Threads has the pattern for free:

I have the patriotic version as well.

That is lovely, my aunt's breast cancer just came back.
best wishes.

Love it!

Good morning, Quilter7x, I notice that someone else already gave you the information for the pattern. It is on the Connecting Threads, their free patterns.

pookie ookie put the site in this thread a few posts back...just click and download.

As she mentioned, she has the patriotic pattern which is great for any Mother of a service person.....just a little token for them to say Thanks for their children's service for all of us.

If you like PP, you will have fun with this one.

MaryJane

What a thoughtful idea for you to do that for your friend. I made some small pillows that they could put under their breast while laying on their side. Even though they are survivors they still use the pillows for comfort.

I have that pattern too! Thanks for posting a pic of one done.

i just had two aunts that died of cancer, love your work, i got the pattern form that link you posted, thanks for sharing :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

She's gonna love it!

Very sweet of you.... I too have a surviving friend from breast cancer.

Cute pin!

Mary Jane that is just awesome. Your friend will love it.

So thoughtful of you to make this pin for your friend!!!

Just went out to buy the pin for the back of it....OMG..I bought one package....
and there are 60 pins and I only need one..........

Anyone out there needing "pins for the back of pins".

They are 1" bar pins.

Let me know and I will send them out to you.

MaryJane

She will love. I am a 8 year survior and have two more surviors in my mini group. I'll have to make them one, thanks.

Cookie

Penny, sorry to hear that. I will put her in my prayers. I am a survior for 8 years. :cry:

Cookie

I'm a six-month survivor. I'd be honored to have a friend make me a pin like that ... honored to have a friend that cared so much about me that she would do something like that! I'm sure she'll love it.

My cancer is rare and doesn't have a color ribbon, so a friend of mine designed one. We even have car magnets! And I adopted the design into the logo for my nonprofit organization, Fighting Cancer, Inc. I'm going to try to post the pic. I bet it would be a fun ribbon to try to do into a quilt ... hmm, I feel a project coming on :)

I tried to download the pattern but it wouldn't download or is there any direction to it or just dementions. I have adobe 7

Cookies

If you want to send me your home address, I will take mine somewhere to get it copied and send them out to you. Don't have a copier her. I won't be home until the 13th but will get it out then.

Going to a quilt show today and leaving in the morning for a cruise.......but as soon as I get home, I can get it out to you if you still can't download it.

Let me know..MJ

Thank you so much MJ, my address is,

Happy Quilting, Cookie

she will love it. I to am a breast cancer survivor. In may will be 16 years cancer free.

Thank you my dear, I just printed it. I actually bought six pink fabrics last night because I want to make a little wall hanging with pink hearts on it for Valentine's Day (I'm not a red person). I bought 1/4 yard of the pinks and only need a 3X3" piece of each for the hearts, so I have plenty left over to make pins with! My mom and sister-in-law, both of whom I love very much, are breast cancer survivors, and I'm monitored closely for it.

YAY for CraftingGrandma and all the others who are survivors! :D
