Watch for the annual FFAC Invitational Reverse Auction of fiber art coming in Spring 2007.
Gallery of the 2006 Invitational Reverse Auction

We raised $58,000
at International Quilt Market and Festival - Houston
and have donated
over $165,000 to the ACS!

One last chance - until December 5 - to donate to the ACS and receive a fiberart postcard.
This offer is from the ever-generous
Karey Bresenhan:


For anyone who didn't get to Houston and would LOVE to get one of the wonderful postcards that somehow slipped past the discerning eyes of the "donor/buyers" at Festival...or for those of you who got home from the show and now regret now picking up a couple more for presents (you DO know you can give yourself presents, don't you?!!)

I have the entire stock of remaining postcards in my very own possession, and I herewith volunteer to pick one or more for you, hold it till your check made out to the American Cancer Society arrives, and then send it to you at my own cost.

All you need to do is email me (kareyb@quilts.com) how many you might like to have (each card is a thank-you for a $30 donation to the ACS) and give me some vague general guidelines. For example,

I like blue, or
The more glitz the better, or
I love animals, or
Christmas is coming or
I prefer hand quilting or
I adore bright colors (or dark or pastel, etc.)or
Cheer me up with something funny.

It would be virtually impossible for me to find a particular artist's card so I'm not offering to do that. Actually, when I reviewed my own postcard treasures from Houston, I discovered that I invariably went for color and complexity rather than for big names. So I don't think you'll miss out on anything by not recognizing the artist's name--you'll just discover a new artist!

But come December 5, all good things must come to an end. So get your orders in now, and then get your checks in the mail. We'll hold your postcard till your check arrives--no need to rush that, just mail it us at:

ACS Project
c/o Quilts, Inc.
7660 Woodway, Suite 550
Houston, TX 77063
Attention: Amanda

If you're overseas and need to use a credit card, we can do that
too. Just let me know and I'll tell you how to handle it.

There are WONDERFUL postcards left...
