February is American Heart Month and time to join together to support heart health and research. Heart Disease remains the #1 killer of women in the U.S. and is more deadly than all forms of cancer. Stitch Red is an industry-wide campaign to raise awareness about heart disease and help women recognize and reduce their risk factors. All vendors involved with Stitch Red donate a percentage of their gross profits from the sale of Stitch Red products to the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health (FNIH) in support of The Heart Truth®, a national awareness campaign for women about heart disease.
So what kind of items can you find … everything from books to needles to yarn! You can check out all the Stitch Red products here, but I hand picked two of my favorites to share with you …

Thank you for the free download of your pretty heart sachet, but nothing I do can get it to print out. After trying the download three times and trying a screen capture of the download, I’ve turned off and on my printer, off and on my computer and printer, and still cannot get anything but a blank page. Is anyone else having such trouble?
Hmmm … I’m not sure what could be wrong. It is opening and printing fine for me.
you could try a copy & paste style. Open the notepad and copy all the text you need from the pattern then paste it into notepad then save, this could get you the pattern also for the picture if you right-click on the picture it should allow you to save image as. then this could allow you to save the image, maybe your printer isn’t set up for printing. are you sure that when you open the printer it’s set to print from your printer and not save to pdf file? or put in a download folder as a pdf?
