Donna Faivre-Roberts is a fabric artist from Lansing NY and a member of the "Quilt Divas" (thequiltdivas.com)- an association of quilt & fabric artists from the Fingerlakes region of Upstate New York.

The Quilt Divas created an art quilt to benefit the "Dining for Women" charity (diningforwomen.org) - an organization of women helping women that donates funds to charities that empower women & girls throughout the developing world.

Donna created a panel inspired by "Dining for Women" (diningforwomen.org), where she created custom dolls of women/children to represent programs such as The Boma Fund (bomafund.org/), Clinique Monique (womenstrust.org/content/clinique-monique), and Bead for Life (beadforlife.org/).

During this interview Donna discusses why she chose this topic for her panel, and how she integrated her custom three-dimensional art dolls into a two-dimensional composition.
