Breast Cancer Tote Headed for 3-Day Walk

posted in family, sewing |

I wanted to update on the very special tote bags I created from a variety of Breast Cancer Awareness fabrics. 2 of the tote bags went to Laurie, one for herself and one she purchased as a birthday gift for her very good friend Nikki. I had the pleasure of meeting both ladies last week and I feel so proud of where my tote creations are heading. You see, Laurie and Nikkie will be using the totes to carry some of their supplies when they participate in the 2008 Dallas Breast Cancer 3-Day Walk beginning this Friday.

This walk is a huge undertaking, 60 miles of walking over a 3 day period. Prior to attending the walk, participants raise funds in support of breast cancer research. Please visit their site to read more. While you’re visiting, please consider making a donation, small or large, to this great cause. There aren’t too many people who have not been touched in one way or another by breast cancer.
