I am not much of a sewer. I’m creative. I can thread a needle and make basic projects but I don’t like to follow directions or use specific techniques. I like to figure things out on my own. I won’t be able to do this with the project I’m thinking about though… I’m going to need some help.

This idea popped into my head last night as I was drifting off to sleep. That’s usually when i come up with my best ideas. Most of them are lost by the next morning but sometimes they stay with me. Fortunately, this one did.

The idea is for a “Ray of Hope” Quilt that would feature scraps of fabric sent in by survivors of PPD from all across the nation (or world for that matter). The general picture I have in my head is a sunrise pattern with rays going to the edge of the quilt. Don’t even have a color scheme or anything in mind yet – so I don’t even know what colours to ask for yet. And frankly, not sure I want to initiate it right now when I’m due the first week of January with my third child. So right now it’s just an idea and I wanted to get it down somewhere before I forgot it. Lucky you!

Anyone who has sewing experience or would like to help me out, feel free to comment and I’ll get in touch with you. Keep in mind that I more than likely won’t be starting this anytime soon!
