Fiberart For A Cause Contribution

Thank you for helping me decide which art quilt to donate to THE 100 Fiberart for a Cause. Here is my contribution: When Blue Blooms, 10x10.

Here's a detail showing the machine stitched arch at the top and a bit of the painted twigs with French knot buds.

More hand stitching... my beloved Y stitches and a swirly vine.

You can get all the details about this exciting, innovative fundraiser here.

1 Day - 100 Artists - 100 Patrons - $10,000Wednesday, February 4, 2015
Opens 10 a.m. Central

How The Fundraiser Works

On February 4, the first 100 people to contact Virginia(at)VirginiaSpiegel.com) beginning at 10 a.m. Central will be given a link to donate $100 by credit card directly to the American Cancer Society through Fiberart For A Cause. 

To be fair to all, no e-mails time dated before 10 a.m. Central will be opened. Virginia is not responsible for the vagaries of the e-mail system.

Please note your donation to the ACS will be credited through the Forest Lake Area Relay For Life. Why?

Each donor will receive an artwork from one of the 100 generous and talented artists here. Assignments of artwork will be made using a random number generator. See our Pinterest board for previews of many artworks.

The artwork may be any size as long as the minimum retail value is $100. Artwork smaller than 8x10" will be mounted to 8x10" or 9x9." The artwork will contain fiber and may or may not be stitched. The artwork may or may not be made specifically for this event.
