Love this fabric, I make small pillows for under the arms of patients with mastectomies, and harnesses for drains--would definitely buy this material.

:roll: Hi Use happy fabric. Having been down this road myself and with mom, anything pink brings back memories. It is very nice of you to be supportive and want to make a quilt. :wink: Tisha

Yes, I definitely agree. I had it twice in sixteen months so had a reconstruction and mastectomy. My mom had it six months after my first diagnosis. We both go for the subtle material. The ladies have hats and scarfs on. We know what that means. Keep it simple. Thanks :-D

I prefer the ladies...it keeps the subject lighthearted and upbeat which the ladies that are struggling need. I've made friends wonderful colorful pillowcases to rest their weary heads as they go through their chemo therapy and make a bottle of linen water to spray the cases and bedding with a relaxing aroma such as lavender or whatever scent you choose. It makes a nice gift to the patient.

I think, while the ribbon is symbolic, most women don't want to be constantly reminded of breast cancer. I'm a 9 year survivor, and I like pink in small amounts, with other colors. My friend and I are holding a "Walk for the Cure" in April here in our small town. My Quilting Group worked together to make a quilt for us to raffle, but we chose a kit from Connecting Threads called Aqua Terra, in southwest colors...no pink involved. We think people are more likely to buy raffle tickets for something they might want to use in there home...pink not so much. Since we want to raise money for Susan G. Komen foundation, selling tickets is our priorty. Quilt is at the Long Armer's, I'll post it when I get it back.
