    i'm sure more people will sign up. its still early and with the 2 date shipping it makes it very easy to work on between other projects.

    i'm actually thinking about doing another set because of the 2 date shipments.

    Hi, Sandi - don't you love it when you get a sign?!? Good for you!! I am thinking of perhaps making two wallhangings to donate to our local Womens Health Center where they offer free mammograms for women who have no insurance or are underinsured >> as a THANK YOU gesture.

    OK, I'm in.
    I made a log cabin for a co-worker when she was diganoised. Pink flannel backing!
    Not sure what block I will do, I be thinking on it.

    As long as the patten is the same, can we change the fabrics? I can then use the whites and pinks in my stash.
    thanks

    i found 2 places in my area that provide free mammograms for women in need.

    thank you so much for the suggestion.

    since i'll be making 2 sets they'll each get a wall hanging.
