I am so happy that so many have joined in on our Open Heart Sew Along. If you missed the details don’t worry, there is still time to join. For the next few weeks we will be sewing the Open Heart Quilt. (If you hurry fast the pattern is still on sale on Vanessa’s website for just $5.)

I have been wanting to make this quilt for as long as the pattern has been available. When Vanessa of Lella Boutique released this pattern I was instantly drawn to the title and design. Some of you know I travel to Africa as often as my time and money will allow with an organization called Mothers Without Borders. While there we practice principles such as being present, being intentional, and having an open heart.

Many have also suffered from various heart conditions. I hope this sew along will in a small way bring recognition and honor to those who have suffered these conditions. I hope those who join us in this sew along will be inspired to have open, whole, and compassionate hearts.

Since Vanessa’s new line of fabric just hit the stores I couldn’t resist making my quilt in these yummy Sugar Pie Fabrics.

So here are the details:

Simply choose your fabric, buy the pattern, and sew-a-long. Share your progress on Instagram using the #OpenHeartSewAlong hashtag.

The sew along will go until May 31st, which give you new a little over 7 weeks. I have organized a few little giveaways along the way so be sure to follow along on Instagram, to find out how to be entered!
