This beautifully photographed book is for anyone who loves to sew and it's dedicated to raising awareness in the prevention of Heart Disease which sadly is the number 1 killer of women in the US.
I think that creativity reaches it's maximum potential when a good cause in mind. This book is proof!

What a great idea! Heart disease runs in the family - was one of the things that my mother dealt with most of her life and my fondest memories are of her sewing clothes for herself, my sister, and me. (Except for when it was hemming time! I had a hard time being still.) It was her machine I used to sew my first stitches. Thanks for the giveaway!
I love these patterns!
Wow, there's some big names in this book and some beautiful projects! THANKS for the chance!
