CFF Participates in YWCA Open Your Purse Event

The Clara Ford Foundation will be "in the house" promoting African American quilting Tuesday, September 25, 2007 at the YWCA Open Your Purse Event! The event is a fund raiser for the Atlanta YWCA. There will be over 400 women at the Downtown Ritz Carlton ready to open their purses to support the YWCA. For more information about the event go to http://www.ywcaatlanta.org/

Several African American quilters made fabric purses for the Clara Ford Foundation table. These purses will be part of the silent auction and the proceeds will benefit the YWCA. CFF will also display several quilts made by African American quilters. Some of these quilts are currently for sale in the CFF Ebay Store.

Shown here is a beautiful Japanese inspired quilted clutch created by Elisa Lewis.
