We hit a purple patch on Tuesday when we hosted a Cuppa for Cancer fundraiser for cancer research. Thank you to Margie, Loretta and Sue S for organizing this special day.
These sweet ladies in the tiaras talked to our group about ovarian cancer. It is such an insidious cancer being so hard to detect and very hard to treat.

Here are the ladies pictured with their mum, our member, Glenda. Glenda is modelling her purple bra which she decorated and it reads “Unite to Fight”
There was a huge display of very creative purple bras made and displayed by our members.
This one by Marilyn C has eyes to check out for changes, lumps etc.
“2 4 TT” by Gabrielle. Two fantastic tea cups – so creative.
The ladies came up with some fantastic ideas for their bras.
This one by Mel is called “Bosom Buddies”.
“Birds of a feather flock together”
After the display and the parade a delicious morning tea was presented for members and visitors – purple of course.

Those bras are amazing. Such imaginative ideas.
This is very interesting post, Dianne, All those bras - embellished in very cute ways. And the purple breakfast - a lovely happening and a helpful one. The quilts are beautiful, each of them.
