day 31 ..... LAST PINK RIBBON DAY

This is the last day of this October month

A well spent month I could say.

I really didn't know where it all came from ...

After preparing the little felted or stitched pieces

there was wonder what way it would go next.

Only for the national felting day and for Man's birthday party

I made something in advance 

.....

All the others were made or stitched on that very day.

I'm glad I made it !

I'm a bit tired, but satisfied.

A few more Jewels to make

for dear people who are waiting patiently

till their special wish will be fulfilled ...

Then, I can count all of that together,

with that : all the EXTRA money a lot of people gave,

so I'll know how much money can be transferred to

the Pink Ribbon Fund.

(then I'm truly finished   ;-)  !)

My last  PINK  RIBBON  Textile Jewel for day 31

A wet felted hollow gray brooch, stitched with cotton

and with different small beads.

(5,5 cm)

A quiet star for this last day !

For a donation of

€ 10

SOLD  !

(or more)

this distinguished gray jewel

can be yours

to keep for yourself or to give away

to someone dear to you !

All you need to do is send me an email at

the making of that "evening star"

THANK  YOU  ALL !

It have been wonderful weeks

with you around me

PINK  RIBBON  !

LAST PINK RIBBON : day 31

Again I can say :

I made it

It required perseverance to keep it up during the month,

(with a little dip in the last week)

but I came through all right.

I didn't start this project lightly.

But my encounter with breast cancer,

eighteen years ago,

wasn't very simple either

...

and I made it there too !

Pink Ribbon collects money for more studies

into the treatment and aftercare

of breast cancer patients.

And for that cause

playing with felt, embroidery floss and beads

isn't such a heavy task !!!

So here is my last Textile Jewel ... 

and your last chance to buy something beautiful !

Pink Ribbon  textile jewel for day  31 :

Lilac little heart with lilac silk back,

embroidered with a couched hand dyed silk swirl

sequins and seed beads

on a 86 cm long wax cord

(with sliding knots)

SOLD !

€ 10

donation for Pink Ribbon and this LAST Textile Jewel

will be yours, to keep or as a lovely present

for someone who needs some extra love !

All you need to do is send me an email at

fiberrainbow@gmail.com

"sweetheart"

NOT tomorrow,

but soon enough,

I will reveal how much money have been donated

to Pink Ribbon

!

last pink ribbon : day 31

This last day of October

will be the last day I will be making

a Pink Ribbon mandala

(for quite some time  ;-) ...) 

It has been a considerable task I've set myself.

Sometimes it was easy,

sometimes I really struggled

Though I must say that in the end,

even during the times it wasn't so easy,

I was satisfied with the outcome

(otherwise I would definately have made a new drawing !)

Now, with this last drawing, 

you can make your final choice to buy one :

(though it might not be to everyone's taste)

I'm sure that there are still people out there

who would enjoy to have one of my works on their wall !

On top of that :

you will have supported a very good cause.

The number of breast cancer patients is still growing, but ...

the chances to recover from it

are ever increasing when we know more about it.

That's why I started this activity,

to add my share to the fight against  breast cancer.

So, let's celebrate life,

live it to its full extent,

make a party of it

"let's dance"

Karisma colour pencils on heavy weight drawing paper  (A4)

the mandala itself is  14 cm  (5.5")  in diameter

sold

If you want this last Pink Ribbon mandala

for yourself or as a present for someone dear

(or one of the older drawings)

please send me an email at

fiberrainbow@gmail.com

This one costs  € 31, - 

(+ postage :  € 1,92 for Holland and  € 3,15 elsewhere)

Of course all the money will go to Pink Ribbon

A very good weekend to you all !
