All Aboard the Vintage Fashion Guild Train! It's our Fall Fundraiser for 2024!

[denisebrain]

We have had a wonderful VFG member start a recurring monthly donation! What a fantastic way to help the Guild!!

And this is exciting: A $7 donation will unlock the $250 matching donation from the board! Who will it be?

And no sooner than I posted above, then a very generous member took us over the line, releasing that board match! THANK YOU!!

This is THRILLING! Yesterday we received three extraordinarily generous donations from members, and one new recurring donation, also from a member!! Thank you all so much for your support!!

Now this progress may look very impressive (and it IS) but this may be the hardest part, reaching the final destination of our fundraiser express.

Remember The Little Engine That Could? Let's hope that's us!

Oh, and don't forget, there is Janine @Distantdetails' SCHIAPARELLI hat on eBay auction just through tomorrow: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2264445389...7GFTAK&hash=item34b9257451:g:mGUAAOSw3fBnMokb

The proceeds will benefit the VFG, so it's a great time to put a feather in your cap and help out the Guild at the same time (thank you Jolene for the banner on the home page!).

 

[MagsRags]

It is a great hat, and so generous of Janine to offer it at auction to benefit the VFG!

 

[Distantdetails]

Also, and I don't know if this will matter to anybody, but I will send a pink Schiaparelli hat box with the hat. It's kind of beat up, and the shocking pink color has faded, but it's a lot of fun!

 

[denisebrain]

Ohhhhh, look at this!! We have received generous donations from two non-members, and one from our own ranks and are creeping up toward our goal! Will we make it?

 

[MagsRags]

I will send a pink Schiaparelli hat box with the hat. It's kind of beat up, and the shocking pink color has faded, but it's a lot of fun!

That is fab, Janine! Schiaparelli hatboxes are very recognizable, and have their own intrinsic value, faded or not.

Today we are featuring the VFG Hat Resource. I personally use it to help with hat style names. I also just graze on the beauty of the examples—so inspiring!

It's not too difficult to find images of fantastic hats and fantastic trains together!
