See hundreds of pink quilts that will be on sale on eBay over the next few months to benefit the Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
Thousands of quilters and quilt shops throughout the world participated in this event sewing over 4000 quilts to help raise money for breast cancer.
The first set of quilts are on the auction block right now on eBay.
One hundred percent of the sale price goes to this non-profit foundation. Their mission statement is:
To save lives and end breast cancer forever by empowering people, ensuring quality care for all and energizing science to find the cures.
On Saturday, Sept. 30, 2006, more than 1,000 quilt shops all across the globe held Quilt Pink events, attracting thousands and thousands of quilters sharing one common goal – to stitch together quilts in support of Susan G. Komen for the Cure’s promise to save lives and end breast cancer forever.
The result was overwhelming.
American Patchwork & Quilting is proud to announce The Quilt Pink Charity Auction to benefit Susan G. Komen for the Cure. This six-month auction campaign launched April 5, 2007. It will feature weekly auctions, beginning each Thursday, totaling nearly 4,000 handmade quilts that showcase the talent and hope of quilters to unite in supporting a cure for breast cancer.
Check out the auction...It's a pink site to see.
