Read this before Feb 4 at 10am US Central time!

Tesoro
This is the quilt that I have donated for
  FiberArt for a Cause. "Tesoro" by Jane LaFazio

1 Day - 100 Artists - 100 Patrons - $10,000

Wednesday, February 4, 2015
Opens 10 a.m. Central


How The Fundraiser Works

On February 4, the first 100 people to contact Virginia (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.

The rules, from Virginia:

To be fair to all, no e-mails time dated before 10 a.m. Central will be opened. I am 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 listed below. Assignments of artwork will be made using a random number generator by someone other than me. Artwork will not be shared here in advance, but may appear on artists' websites or other social media before the event. 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.

Each artist will receive her/his patron's e-mail address to arrange shipping. Artwork will be shipped directly from the artist. Please note this is an international roster of artists. Please thank the artist for not only donating the artwork, but also shipping it to you.

 Each artist would love to receive a low res photo of the artwork in situ from the new owner. This is not required, but the best photos may be shared here after the event.
Questions? Contact me at Virginia(at)VirginiaSpiegel.com
or here is a series of Q&A about the event.

If you would like to be sure your Request to Donate does not go in my spam folder on February 4, send a trial message today.
Special Note: Our goal of $10,000 will make Fiberart For A Cause's donations to the American Cancer Society a nice even one-quarter of a million dollars and FFAC will be happily retired.
