quilts waiting for new homes |
My small group of quilting friends (the "Sew 'n Sews") have made and donated several quilts over the years, raising over $2,000 for this worthwhile cause.
You can see the group quilt we donated for this year's auction here - Whirlygig #107. It's a hand quilted scrap quilt made from the fabric stashes of 5 very diverse quilters.
And in keeping with the them of all of the efforts by the hundreds of people that go into raising money for this very worthy cause, I saw this sign today that I just had to make a U-turn to take a photo of. Love it!
Looks like a really good place to donate a quilt.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the sign, too. : )
I hope your quilt sells for a great price! Our relief sale is the 4th Saturday in September.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link Kathy. So many wonderful quilts in there. Wish I live closer so I could attend too. Hope your quilts, which is so lovely, brings in big bucks. I tagged the picture of the sign. It's true, kindness is a choice. Enjoy the auction. ;^)
ReplyDeleteThe little quilt group I have been part of is also called "Sew 'n Sews".
ReplyDeleteMy little group in Arkansas also goes by the name!
DeleteThat sign needs to be a bumper sticker -- what a relevant thought!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful sale! I wish I lived closer to go to it!
ReplyDeleteWhat an impressive collection of auction quilts. Hope they raise lots of money. The need is certainly great.

Great sign.
ReplyDeleteThis auction has been on my bucket list for years. Some day.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the link to the catalogue. Quilter's eye candy! Photographs really don't do justice to some of the beautiful quilts. Hope there were lots of bids for #107.
ReplyDeleteI belong to a small quilting group who also calls ourselves the "Sew and Sews." We are your sisters from Arkansas!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great time at the auction and that it raised lots of money.
