Hon tänkte då på symboliken med en behå, för det är verkligen något som stödjer oss kvinnor.
Madame Samm ritade ett mönster på en behå, som vi fick använda som vi ville.
We have surely some one in our life that has been diagnosed with breast cancer. Madame Samm had this in mind, when she organized this blog hop together with the cheerleader Pat Broe.
Jag förstorade mönstret till 400 % och visst det blev en gigantisk applikation. Och den måste sitta på något, så därför började jag med att konstruera hjärtat av kvadrater. Det fick bli kantigt som kontrast till de runda formerna i behån.
I have enlarged the pattern from Madame Samm to 400% and this appliqué became very large. And where to put it?? I pieced a big edgy hart of only squares with contrast to the round forms in the bra.
As I had some abstinens problem with the FMQ I have gone crazy with my machine quilting with my sewing machine. It was so fun to quilt again. It must have been some months ago since I have FMQ.
Jag hade verkligen abstinens från att inte ha frihandskviltat på länge, så jag gick verkligen loss med min symaskin. Det var jättekul.
The spring is here for some days and I really enjoyed taking picture outside.
Yes, I love the fabric from Laurel Burch and it makes me so happy.Orange together with pink and red is so feminine don´t you think so?
Det är Laurel Burch tyger som jag har i behån. Visst är det läckert med orange tillsammans med cerise och rött?
Här är närbilder av behå och hjärtat.
A close picture of the heart and the bra.
And finally a picture of the quilt at the park bench outside. Yes it is spring.
Slutligen en bild av kvilten på en bänk ute i vårsolen.
It was so fun to make this quilt and I hope that the quilt will enjoy someone else as I have decided to include it in a lottery to benefit the Breast cancer research. We will have our annual Swedish Quilt Guild Meeting in October, why it will be a good occasion to have this kind of lottery.
Det var så trevligt att sy kvilten och jag hoppas att den kan glädja någon annan. Jag kommer därför att lotta ut den till förmån för Bröstcancerfonden när Rikstäcket har årsmöte i oktober i Upplands Väsby i år.
Nu har ni sett vad jag har sytt och då är det dags att besöka alla de andra som bloggar om We will support you.
It´s time to hop over to all the other ladies and read their stories and admire their projects.

Thank you lovely Samm for this blog hop for such a good cause and our cheerleader Pat.
It is so fun to increase the creativity and fantasy and most of all enjoying the projects from women all around the world.
Enjoy the blog hop and have a great day. It is soon spring and the light and sun is here.
