Sew Pink 2021

by Oct 22, 20210 comments

Welcome to SEW PINK 2021! For those that are new to the #SewPink Initiative, it was created by ByAnnie.com LLC to raise awareness for breast cancer throughout the year. Their efforts culminate in an annual blog hop during October’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month to promote self-care, awareness, early detection and support for those affected by breast cancer. I have been able to participate the last 2 years as well and I love the chance to ponder, raise awareness and be reminded of the seriousness that Breast Cancer is, and the simple efforts we can make to fight this! Its a great reason I’ve found each October to sew with some pink fabrics and make a donation to a worthy cause.

I am excited to share my PINK project this year. I decided to stick with another theme of this month, Halloween! And since there are so many cute PINK halloween fabrics out this year I ended up making my Olivia’s Baskets in pink fabrics. They are the perfect size to hold all your Halloween goodies.

These baskets are made using ByAnnie’s Soft and Stable which always gives great structure to any project. These baskets are made from Art Gallery Fabrics Spooky and Sweet collection. The two with the pink exteriors are the medium size and the one in black with the pink pumpkin is the small size. I’m excited to fill them up and use them this month.

Caring for ourselves and our bodies is so important. There is a history of breast cancer in my family, and I’m grateful to have the knowledge that a simple call for an appointment can help with early detection.

ByAnnie.com’s #SewPINK Initiative has joined Fat Quarter Shop’s fundraising efforts for the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

You can support and help us reach the goal of $10,000 by making a donation through this page.

ByAnnie.com has pledged to match any dollar amount raised on this #SewPINK fundraising page. Please consider a generous donation to contribute to this important cause. Together we can make a difference!

Thank you for your support! Together, we are giving the gift of hope to women and families in need.
