W e are very
pleased, again, to make a raffle quilt to benefit the Ronald McDonald House in
Bangor, Maine. It will highlight our biennial quilt show, "St. Croix Quilts 2008: Home Sweet Home,"
Friday, August 8 (1 to 8
pm) and Saturday, August 9 (9 am to 4 pm), at St. Croix Hall, Washington County Community
College, Calais, Maine. Don't miss our Mountain Folk challenge at the
show, too!
The quilt was the inspiration of St. Croix Quilter Bonnie Hunter who motivated
members to create a raffle quilt using blue and tan scrap fabrics. She
led a log cabin block workshop and taught participants how to paper piece the
hillside village that is arranged across the top of the quilt. Dana Bard
of Moose Island Quilting did the wonderful machine quilting and Jen Lacasse
added the binding to finish the quilt.
The Ronald McDonald
House was the unanimous choice for our efforts. Tickets are available
from any guild member or by calling Jen Lacasse at (207) 454-0903 or e-mailing
her at jentim3@verizon.net. The
lucky ticket will be drawn on the last day of our quilt show in August.
Don't forget, the member who sells the most raffle ticket
will win a huge collection of fat quarters!
