Each quilt created by the Inspiration Guild bears the name of someone touched by ovarian cancer-a survivor, victim, caregiver, fighter. Blank Quilting donates one dollar to the NOCC for every block submitted. Additionally, Blank has created three fabric lines, the Inspiration Collections I & II & III featuring the distinctive teal ribbon motif of the ovarian cancer cause. A portion of the proceeds for the sale of these collections also benefits the NOCC. The finished quilts of the Inspiration Guild will be auctioned off with all proceeds going to the NOCC.
