ToteTuesday, the newest Fiberart For A Cause fundraiser for the American Cancer Society, will open Tuesday, February 2 and continue through March. It’s a fundraiser AND a showcase for everything that is fun and creative about the fiber arts.

This weekly auction will feature themed totes filled with unique, beautiful, and inspiring items from the worlds of art quilting, fiber arts, knitting, beading, mixed media and surface design such as: original artwork, autographed books, hand-dyed fabrics, gorgeous yarns, beads, handmade journals, fun and useful materials/tools for mixed-media and surface design, online classes, DVDs, and much, much more.

More than 20 themed totes are being collected.  Click here to see the growing list and the names of their sponsors.

100% of the proceeds will be donated directly to the American Cancer Society through Fiberart For A Cause. Did you know that Fiberart For A Cause has already donated over $190,000 to the ACS (click here for details).  Let's set a new record ....

There will be an auction from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. every Tuesday with a required opening bid, additional bids requested in $10 increments.  There will also be a Go for the Gold! price if you must own the tote AND want to be a champion supporter of the ACS.

Please mark your calendar for Tuesdays, starting on February 2 when the fun begins and continues every Tuesday through the month of March, 2010.

Be prepared to be amazed!

Be ready to shop,
to spend and
to support Cancer Research!
