The Ties That Bind Doll Raffle: Artists Raising $ to Fight Cancer

Project Ties That Bind has asked crafting bloggers to spread the word about this year’s raffle. One-hundred per cent of the proceeds go towards the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund.

The raffle is open until September 30th, 2009 when one lucky winner will be drawn to win the group’s amazing collaborative art piece, a one-of-a-kind doll. Just look at the detail shot above to get a small idea of how many artists put their hearts and souls into this project.

The doll is almost life size. Her dress is covered with pieces of men’s silk Ties (That Bind) and embellished with meaningful charms and doodads – all handcrafted.

You’ll find all the details about the project and raffles at the Ties That Bind blog. To see this work of art from all angles, visit the project’s photo gallery.
