Happy Valentine's Day!
Today is filled to the brim with love as I think of all of my friends and family-- but most of all my four best and brightest little hearts of my heart--my four grandchildren.
Three beautiful girls and one very handsome boy. Ages 5, 4, 3, and 4 weeks old today. A photo at the top of the 3D pinwherl quilt I made for our newest little granddaughter.
The little poufy soft pinwheels quilt is made with Kaffe Fassett 5" squares from primarily the 'Paperweights Collection' and finished with scraps used in other projects for borders, cornerstones and binding. Tied with heartstrings of love!
Only wish I could share photos of my beautiful little ones too! Love them all so very, very much !
February is National "Take Care of Your Heart Month". But it is also the month for showing and sharing love and not just on Valentine's Day on February 14th.
We take care of our own physical heart, we take care of our emotionsl heart, and we reach out with love and compassion from our heart to others
Whenever we make a comfort quilt or donate a block to a given cause, we are putting a piece of ourselves...our heart...into that donation.
Whether they are given to a loved one, heart surgery adults or tiny babies born with congenital heart disease, and always for cancer care and love, for hospice donations, or to simply to show our love, faith, and caring.
It's wonderful to make and keep heart blocks, quilts and other projects on hand....any time of the year!
Make a pledge to yourself, and to those you love this month. Take good care of your own heart with healthy habits and a good and active life and make a comfort quilt, a heart shaped comfort pillow, or some other lovely little heart filled gift of comfort to another.
One for you, one for a beloved, and one for someone you may never meet, but one you can still reach out to with love!
And please think of all of the little ones that have been born with congenital heart defects.. Known as "heart warriors" it is heart-warming to make little neo-natal quilts and donate to any hospital.
Every day, all over the world, babies are born with no explainable reason with heart defects. Heart quilts and heart blankets are lovely, caring ways to share and to show love. 💜
While some may be as minor as leaky heart valves, others are so serious that they require immediate life saving efforts and open heart cardiac surgery.
These precious newborns or young babies have to be placed on a cardio-pulmonary bypass (heart-lung) machine while cardio-pulmonary surgeons have to do micro surgical repairs that can take up to 10 hours to do.
And if you aren't aware, a newborn's tiny heart is about 1" across. Imagine micro-surgery on that for 8 to 10 hours!
Please make and donate baby quilts to your own local NICU or PICU. Each baby is presented with a handmade and donated soft baby quilt that us for each of them to bring home. They are incredibly appreciated.
And of course, every day both men and women are facing heart disease and the possibility of a heart attack. It can happen unexpectedly even to those with no prior history, symptons, or risk factors.
And every day, many women and yes, some men, learn they have breast cancer or even harder die from a disease that not have a cure. When you hear cure it usually means a very isolated form of breast cancer that stays only with milk ducts or on the surface of the skin but doesn't invade other organs, the blood or the brain.
When you hear the word "survivor" it means they caught their cancer early and made it through chemo with all visible cancer cells destroyed and therefore are in remission.
Sadly, it does not means it won't come back in another form, place, or time. Some people live to make their 5 year or even 10 year remission birthday. How very very wonderful that is.
They continue to need medical, housing and household bill support as few qualify for medical disability. Sad but very true.
Heart pillows and comfort gifts and blankets are slways needed and greatly appreciated 💜
And your own heart will be filled with the gift of giving to others.
Please donate to Breast Cancer patients or make gifts from your own heart!
Heart pillows, soft fleece blankets or quilts for chemo, seat belt pillow protectors for use with a chemo port or after surgery
My own heart shaped or themed tutorials:
My String Pieced Prayer Pocket Pillow
make with strings or solids and use the little pocket in the back...for sending good wishes of any kind!
Making a (Cardiac) Heart Pillow
A perfect and caring gift for post surgery for either cardiac or breast cancer patients, hugging a pillow over the heart after cardiac surgery or under the arm after breast surgery have been shown to help significantly with post-operative pain.
This one was nade for a "cowboy" in our famiky who has his 5th heart attack a decade ago and is still active anda gift to his children, grabdchikdren abd great grandchildren 💜
