Stitching for a Cure

March 29, 2014 / 12 Comments

Yesterday was chemo day again and I spent the morning at the hospital with my daughter-in-law.  When I came home there was a package waiting for me from my friend Pauline.

Just look at what she made using breast cancer fabric!  Exquisite little bags to hold sewing things, cosmetics or anything else we can dream up.  One for me and one for my daughter-in-law.  Can you believe how cute they are?  These are #7 & #8 that Pauline made using this special cancer fabric.  She’s “stitching for a cure”!

 

Present from Pauline

These are gifts to treasure…

Stitching for a Cure

…made even more special because they were stitched by a friend.  Thank you Pauline!

If you’ve tried to place an order on our website this week and couldn’t do it, we’re back up and running again.   If you’re one of the customers we spoke with on the phone, thank you for your patience and support!

Hugs,

Anne

    Pauline is very talented and even more thoughtful. This is a wonderful gift for your DIL.
    You and your family will continue to be in my prayers. Tell your DIL she is loved by someone in Texas.

    Anne…you are very welcome and thank you for your sweet blog posting. I knew the moment I saw the posting about the cancer journey your family would be taking that I would make you two ‘Tammy’ bags with breast cancer fabric. I took the same journey with my sister and my son…no one should have to go down that road. They were young…45 and 23 years old and today they are 60 and 37. I will be mailing off another Tammy bag today…made with the same breast cancer fabric. We got back from Canada late Monday afternoon…it was a busy 4 days and a good trip back to Michigan…no snow was flying!! hugs Pauline

    Anne, what lovely gifts, and how sweet of your friend to show her support in this way. I’ve been praying for a complete recovery for your daughter-in-law and for strength for the family throughout her treatments.

    What sweet gifts! One of my quilting friends is in the middle of her chemo. She will be with us next weekend. She is the third in our group who are breast cancer survivors and we support one another through this. Know that I’ve been praying for your daughter-in-law as well as for Paula. (((Hugs)))
