Bead It Forward Bead Quilt Squares

Wowza! Bead and Button states that a total of 1,313 squares were received for the 2013 Bead It Forward project. And, that number includes the over 60 squares that HBS members and friends created. So, if you participated - give yourself a hand - and thanks to all who did.

Numerous volunteers made these squares into a variety of auction-able items that included quilts and new this year - ornaments that were sold at the show. All proceeds went to benefit the Medical College of Wisconsin for breast cancer research.

The good news is that Bead & Button held back a few ornaments to sell to people who didn't have the opportunity to attend the show. So, this is your lucky opportunity to purchase a two-sided beaded square and benefit breast cancer research for only - $5.00! That's right - for the mere price of a cup of brand name coffee, you can help in the battle against this deadly disease.
