Juried artwork donated to Reverse Auction
Rusty Grove
Linda Teddlie Minton
Linda has donated this gorgeous art quilt to the 2009 Invitational Reverse Auction to be held March 24 – 26, 2009.
Rusty Grove is 26×28″ and created from Linda’s own rust-printed and monoprinted fabrics. The artwork is also hand-painted, hand-embroidered, and machine-quilted.
Rusty Grove was juried into the Houston Center for Contemporary Crafts’ Unifying Threads exhibit, but was marked Not For Sale in order to remain available for this Invitational Reverse Auction of Fiberarts.
100% of the proceeds from the Reverse Auction, sponsored by Fiberart For A Cause, is donated directly to the American Cancer Society with an immediate electronic receipt for the donor from the ACS.
Linda lost her husband to cancer in 1999 and has supported Fiberart For A Cause since its beginning. “Being asked to contribute a piece to the prestigious FFAC Reverse Auction is a great honor and I am very happy to participate in this fundraiser for the American Cancer Society.”
You can read more about Linda’s work on her blog. Her work is also for sale in several Texas galleries and can be seen in Creative Quilting: The Journal Quilt Project. Linda recently curated the online exhibit, Braving the Elements.
I agree with all the comments about Linda’s piece. Wonderful +++++
Patty – I totally agree with your choices for Kreative Bloggers. I never carry on to the next five, but SO appreciate the recognition. THANK YOU!!!

I saw this piece at the Center for Contemporary Craft in Houston, and it is even more wonderful “in person”. Congratulations, Virginia, on the acquisition of another great piece for your silent auction!
Gorgeous piece!
Thank you so much, Virginia, for inviting me to participate in your Reverse Auction! I’m very excited to be able to contribute whatever I can to finding the cure for cancer, and your dedication is an inspiration to all of us.
cheers & hugs,
Linda
