Jean's Artful Spirit

FiberArt For A Cause

These four fabric postcards have been sent to Virginia Spiegel for the FiberArt For A Cause sale to be held at the IQA show in Houston in October. All the proceeds from the sale of donated postcards goes directly to the American Cancer Society for research. Virginia has set a goal to have 1800 postcards to sale at the show.

FFAC was started a year ago and originally the postcards were sold over the internet and then premiered at last year's Houston show. In April of this year they were also sold at the IQA show in Chicago and so far the postcards have brought in over $53,000 for The American Cancer Society. It is hoped that with the sales from the October show in Houston we will have donated $100,000 to fund research, saving many lives in the process.
