3. 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.

4. 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.

5. 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.

100 for 100 - Designing Mode!


Now that Christmas is behind me it's time to clean up the studio and get busy designing my donation piece for 100 for 100. If you recall Virginia Spiegel's 2015 fundraising goal is $10,000 to benefit the American Cancer Society. On February 4th the first 100 people to donate $100 receive a fabulous piece of fiber art created by 100 talented artists... save the date! 

I've been sketching thoughts and ideasl. My approach will be to use a variety of screens to build up the design and add detail with thread... now - I'm off to gather supplies and put dye to fabric!
