As we sail together through our 13th Annual Charity Quilt Along, we are excited for the life-changing impact this sewing community can make. We're inspired by the stories of children who have been granted life-changing wishes. Last year, we had the special opportunity to host Justin's Wish Party. The time spent with Justin and his family was a bright spot in our year, and we had so much fun hearing about all the fun things they planned to do during their trip to Disney! ### Special Donor Gift: The Haven Bear The first 500 donors to donate an amount of $75 or more will receive a special limited edition Haven Bear as a thank-you gift! This sweet bear comes with embroidered foot pads and a darling bowtie and will only be available to those who donate to the Haven fundraiser this year. For each bear we send to a donor, we will also send one to a Make-A-Wish child, so it's a gift that keeps giving! With every donation, we are closer to our goal of granting ten wishes and closer to awarding each special surprise. Be sure to make your $75 or more donation before all the donor gifts get claimed! We are almost to the halfway point of our $100,000 goal, and a little over half of the bears have been gifted!! Our quilty community never ceases to amaze us with its kindness and big-hearted generosity. We know how meaningful it is to come together for this cause, and we're so grateful for every donation, no matter the size, that helps bring a child's wish to life. Fat Quarter Shop and Moda Fabrics are once again teaming up to match up to $30,000 in donations. With our amazing community pitching in, we know that hitting our $100,000 goal is on the horizon! ### Stardust Cross Stitch Each year, we enjoy stitching the coordinating cross stitch pattern for the charity quilt pattern. The scattered stars and added texture in the Haven Cross Stitch Pattern make it a must-stitch! With five colors of embroidery floss hand-picked to coordinate with the quilt, you will be sew excited to get stitching Part Two of the Haven Cross Stitch Pattern. - **Pattern Details:** Five hand-picked floss colors matching the quilt. - **Skill Level:** Suitable for all skill levels, from beginners to experts. - **Community Impact:** Every stitch supports Make-A-Wish.
