2025 ByAnnie SewPINK Blog Hop – Making The Zip It Up 2.0

Bags, Tutorials - Oct. 19, 2025 - Jess

It's that time again.... Let's raise awareness for breast cancer research with the #SewPink Initiative!

I'm once again joining in on the ByAnnie Blog Hop and making a beautiful bag to help bring awareness to the prevalence of breast cancer among both women and men. 

The #SewPink Initiative's mission is to raise awareness for cancer throughout the year.

Efforts culminate in an annual blog hop during October’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month to promote self-care, awareness, early detection and support for those affected by breast cancer.

To learn more and see the calendar of events visit: https://www.ByAnnie.com/SewPINK

Check out the amazing group of sewists who are also a part of this blog hop!

    Thanks, Jess, for being part of our annual SewPINK Initiative. It is always such fun to see what you make — and how you take it to the next level! Love those Zip It Up 2.0 bags. I love seeing them made with bonded nylon. Thanks for sharing all the tips!. They are so so so fun and perfect for gifts.
