#SewPINK Initiative Blog Hop 2024





I traveled every weekend, for seven years....
to be with my mother
during treatment
during recovery
during complications
during it all

(bags above are Travel Duffle Bag 2.1 and Get Out of Town 2.1)

Today, technology is so much better.
Treatments are so much better.
We can be so much better.
Please visit
Thanks to byAnnie for showering us with this awareness!


In keeping with the traveling theme

a series of great travel accessories were selected from
(including EVERYTHING I needed to complete the projects!)

Grab a friend or two, and hit the road.
But be sure to make a few great gifts to share with your travel mates.


I thot this would be a fun travel gift - add a gift card
to a restaurant or coffee house at your travel destination!


These are made with Sally Kelly's new fabric, TWILIGHT, for Windham Fabrics
(ships February 2025)
I cut enough fabric from fat quarters
to make eleven of these easy peasey wallets


The next thing on my list was the Petit Four Baskets
Using byAnnie's Soft and Stable makes everything so crisp!


(now to make the last three!!)


We'll be working our way through the "Piecekeeper Project Bag"
and "Cut it Out!"  for more great travel gifts.
And posting on our ig or fb pages
@beyondthereefpatterns

Grab some friends, hit the road, 
and 
appreciate your time together.

Until that time, please take a look at the links to all of the participants
for this year's
SewPink.

And if you can, donate.


Help us raise funds for research.

Nearly 70% of the ByAnnie community - our customers, staff, and friends - are within the highest risk factor for breast cancer. Many members of our ByAnnie family have witnessed their loved ones endure countless treatments and make painful goodbyes. For us, it’s personal. We imagine it’s personal for you, as well.

In joining forces with Fat Quarter Shop, we are encouraging donations to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Through their research, we move closer to prevention and cures. 

ByAnnie.com will be matching all funds raised during the month of October 2024 (up to $10k) and encourage you to donate, if you can.
