Top Breast Cancer Crafts Fundraising Ideas

As you know, Breast Cancer awareness is a charity that is close to my heart. I have been fundraising for the charity for years, so when I saw these Breast cancer crafts I thought it would not only give me the opportunity to bring the charity to your attention, but also give some ideas to those who need fundraising ideas.

For the Cross Stitchers

This Item is Hand Stitched with Love on a Light Pink Plastic Canvas. Cross Stitched in a Rose Coloured Yarn is the words “I AM STRONG”, in between a Pink Cancer Ribbon stitched in half cross stitch with different shades of pink to give a 3 Dimensional Shadowing Effect. The rest of the Canvas is half cross stitched with white yarn to accentuate the pink, and to complete it is rimmed with a pastel pink edging with crocheted yarn for hanging.

I love this little cross stitch plaque from Jessica.    I think this could quite easily be adapted to make a fantastic keyring.

For the Knitters







You might expect your granny to knit you a woolly jumper, but one pensioner has been defying expectations by using her needles to craft amazing knitted breasts.

Coral Charles-Dunne, 91, from Birmingham, has knitted dozens of the unusual educational tools as part of a project to inform expectant and new mums about breastfeeding.

She says spends about two hours creating each of the woolly boobs and makes them in a range of sizes, knitting for up to six hours per day.

Taking a few minutes to do a breast self-exam a minimum of once a month can make a lifetime of difference. Nearly 70% of all breast cancers are found through self-exams and with early detection the 5-year survival rate is 98%. If you find a lump, schedule an appointment with your doctor, but don't panic—8 out of 10 lumps are not cancerous. For additional peace of mind, call your doctor whenever you have concerns.
