Sew Thankful Sunday, February 2020

{I love the idea of “paying it forward”. I think the world would be a better place if we could spread some joy and acknowledgement of good deeds done by others. I try to do that once a month for my Sew Thankful Sunday posts. I highlight some great content that I’ve found on other people’s blogs that I hope will inspire you and reward the originator by bringing traffic to their site. If your blog has been mentioned without your consent, please let me know and I will take you off the current list of featured bloggers.}

I’m crazy about hearts, so February is always a good excuse to make something with a heart in it. You’ll find plenty of heart-shape ideas today along with some great tips to keep you on top of things!
