As most of you would be aware, I am currently in the process of compiling the lessons and videos from my online classes into Workbooks on DVD, and some time ago I had the idea of also compiling the lessons and video from my complementary class “Machine Wrapped Cording” - which is a very popular and fun online workshop - into a “Workbook For Download” with the proceeds being donated to a charity. The charity which sprang to mind was Fiberart for A Cause.
As individuals we often feel like we can’t make much of a difference, but as a combined group we can make a noticeable and considerable difference and one individual though who has indeed made a most noticeable difference is Virginia Spiegel who founded Fiberart for A Cause, a fundraising effort on behalf of the American Cancer Society which has to date raised an amazing $165,000 plus.
When I approached Virginia with my idea to help raise money for her cause she was extremely enthusiastic and encouraging about the idea. It always makes us feel good to give to a worthy cause, but when you get something in return for your donation - how much better can that get!
I have spent a great deal of time and effort in compiling this little workbook - it’s no small feat to put one of these workbooks together - and the result is a slick little multimedia ebook with step-by-step instructions for making wrapped cording on your sewing machine, including video, sample photos, options and applications, tips and tricks, and resources.
The ebook requires the current version of Adobe Reader which is free, and contains its own flash player so you can view the video on your desktop without the hassle of downloading any further software. It also contains a printable copy of the lessons which you can use to compile a workbook for your samples.
All this is yours for a tiny little $5.00 donation. Go get it !!
