Fiberart For A Cause

My contribution to this years Fiberart Fir A Cause.

Sunset an 18 x 18 art quilt fused, painted and machine and hand stitched.

Every year Fiberart For A Cause, founded by Virginia Spiegel, announces a new fiber-related fundraiser to benefit the American Cancer Society. To date, we have donated $240,000 to ACS, and this year we hope to make it an even quarter of a million dollars!

Mark your calendars for February 4, 2015. On that day, the first 100 people to donate $100 each to the American Cancer Society through the link provided by Virginia, will each receive a fiber artwork valued at $100 or more. We have 100 artists from all over the world participating, each donating an original artwork to this fundraiser. This is a photo of my contribution. 18 x 18 called "Sunset"

For all the details on how you can donate and win an original piece of art, please visit http://www.virginiaspiegel.com/FFACThe100Fundraiser.html

The messenger bag

 I love all the colorful fabric that Fassett uses.

I am working on the messenger bag that along with

the book of Fassett's autobiography I will donate to the

Year of Art. the American Cancer Society fund

raiser that Virginia Spiegel is sponsoring.

 I almost like the lining better than the outside.

This is fun working with such great fabrics.

I changed the pattern to put the pockets on the

inside instead of outside. Less chance of things

falling out. So far there are 5 pockets on the

inside and 2 pockets on the outside. A

gal can never have enough places to put things.

I just may have to make myself one of these.
