It’s almost time ... Saturday night,
November 17, 6 ~ 8 PM
. . . for our 15th Annual Breast Cancer Benefit, with all proceeds going to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Go to
http://www.bcrfcure.org/ to read more about this organization. We chose this Foundation for our donation because of its very
low percentage of administrative costs, with over 90% of all donation dollars going directly to research grants and awareness
programs. BCRF is the only cancer organization to hold an A+ rating from the American Institute of Philanthropy.
Our goal each year has been to surpass the previous year's total, but perhaps due to the economy, certainly not to the
quality and number of donations, last year’s $18,000 was considerably below our 2010 ($23,600) and 2009 ($20,000+) totals.
And that means that we need your help even more in raising $18,000+ this year and more! So many of you have contributed so
unselfishly by donating your incredible handwork to this cause: raising money to find a cure for this dreaded disease. We have
dozens and dozens and dozens of beautiful handmade items that I believe will knock your socks off !
How to Bid I have included what the committee of volunteers established as a Minimum Opening Bid (MOB) or the latest bid
to beat, but please know that the items frequently go for many times the amount of the opening bid. Because we really aren't set
up for ongoing long-distance bidding on items, if you see something that you really want, you may ensure your getting it by
placing what you regard as a "Buy It Now" bid, i.e., one that may discourage others from outbidding you, knowing that all the
proceeds go to a very worthy cause. And, of course, you may contact us again to place a higher bid. In years past, bidders have,
for example, selected an item or items that they really want and, based on their budget, placed bids of, say, $200 or $300. When
you place a bid, please provide telephone number(s) and credit card information, although we truly prefer you to send your
check for your successful bid items. If you wish, you may make your check for more. And some of you simply send a donation
via a check payable to BCRF, to include in our event total!
Payment is preferred by check, made payable to BCRF. However, we will process your bids by credit card, if necessary;
thus, the reason we need your credit card on file for all qualified bids.
And on Saturday evening, November 17, from 6 - 8 PM final bids will be placed while you enjoy some delicious Seasonal
treats and refreshments. It's a very festive and fun evening, and we hope you plan to be with us. Until then you may place your
bids, either by e-mail or by phone (toll-free at 1.888.94-ATTIC/1.888.942-8842).
This year the Silent Auction, with the help of dear Tess and her
friends, will again be held at The Gathering Place, 1837
West Guadalupe Rd., Mesa, formerly known as Abbey
Gardens Teahouse. It’s conveniently located a mile east of Loop
101 on Guadalupe Road. Final bidding (with wonderful Costcoprepared hors d'oeuvres and refreshments) from 6 ~ 8 PM on
Saturday night, November 17. Bidding closes promptly at 8 PM.
More volunteers are needed on Friday evening, November 16,
to move all of the items to the Gathering Place starting between
4:00 & 4:30 PM. We will serve pizza and refreshments and, of
course, chocolate to the helpers. Please call if you can help.

“Hope” ~ A Very Special Donation from Cherished Stitches
“What do you get with Bubble Gum and Milk Chocolate?” Louise Henderson of Cherished Stitches answered it this way in the
lovely beautifully wrapped package she presented me with at the Baltimore Market: “A breast cancer ornament to keep.”
Louise, like many of us, has been touched by breast cancer and has generously donated this ornament design, stitched on 32c
Milk Chocolate by Wichelt with Weeks’ Bubble Gum Crewel Wool, and she provided a limited number of copies for our use. The
ornament is stitched over 2, except for the words “Love” and “Hope,” which are stitched over 1.
We’ve kitted Louise’s chart with a piece of the Milk Chocolate linen and the Bubble Bum Crewel Wool (I know, the
photograph shows Weeks floss; I didn’t read all the words before taking the photograph) and all net proceeds from the sale of this
kit will be donated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
You may order the kit for “Hope,” which includes Louise’s complimentary chart, the linen + the crewel wool for $8, or with
Weeks floss for $4.

Item 71, finished
moments ago, is stitched
on 40c silk gauze.
Below, the stunning display of redwork ornaments donated by a California EGA Guild are
so lovely on our classroom garland that I wanted you to see them together, in case you
wanted to consider bidding on a grouping, to make a “RED” statement in your decorations!
Mark your calendars now and plan to be with us for our 15th Annual BCRF Benefit ~ and help raise funds for breast cancer research!
