Support for Ukraine

In 2022, Bonnie Hunter did a quilt-along for Hearts of Hope, a quilt of support for the Ukrainian people. Blue and yellow are the colors of the Ukrainian flag.

Bonnie Hunter's pattern can be purchased at her shop:

I'm feeling the need to pull out my blue and yellow fabrics to show my continued support for Ukraine. I plan to make a One-Block Wonder panel quilt from this panel:

Sunflowers are key component of Ukraine's economy, and they are considered a national symbol for the country.

Quiltmaking is my art and is the way I best express myself. You may express yourself in a different way than I; crocheting, knitting, weaving, embroidering, etc. can have the same effect. We may not be able to effect change on a global scale, but we can find small ways to help manage our feelings about the world around us. 

If you would like to do this, pull out your blue and yellow fabrics/yarns/threads/etc., use any pattern, and pour your love and support into your work. I'd love to see what you choose to create, and I'll be glad to share your efforts on this blog.
