eBay Quilt Auction for Breast Cancer



For immediate release.

InterQuilt announces fund-raising auction

InterQuilt announces The Peck Auction to raise funds for Breast Cancer
Research. The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation has graciously
agreed to accept the net proceeds. This auction features 17 quilts
created by members offered on eBay; the online auction site. The
auction will run until November 26, 2003.

InterQuilt, founded in January, 1993, is an online quilting guild with
members from around the globe. Members form a close bond and have an
annual conference held in a different city each year, including
Sacramento, CA in October of this year.

Founder, Melissa Bishop, states "The Peck Auction was created as a
means for the members of InterQuilt to cope with the loss of yet
another member to Breast Cancer. Phyllis Peck was a long time member
who lost her fight with Breast Cancer in July and whose spirit touched
us all. We've lost many members to cancer and wanted to do something
positive and meaningful to honor them."

The information on The Peck Auction can be found on the InterQuilt
site at http://www.interquilt.com and the quilts can be found on eBay
