This post is on behalf of Faith Seeds International. (The non profit board I'm on)
In Sisters, Oregon this summer they are having a big fundraiser. Gaby, my sweet Guatemalan friend who started Faith Seeds, will be there. I don't know all the details except I was asked if my
"Quilt team" (YOU!) could come up with an "offering" for the silent auction. This was asked by a fellow board member/non quilter. I thought his verbage was really sweet.
I decided since I don't use this basket quilt in my lectures I will be donating it.
If anyone here has it in their heart to donate something you've made- quilt, craft, or other "offering" I would be super appreciative. I am able to give you a receipt for your donation! (Added benefit)
You may or may not know my first mission trip was to Guatemala. It touched my heart deeply and am looking forward to returning later this year!
I took pillowcase dresses in the past. Faith Seeds after school program is in the mountains, near a volcano, and coats are much more practical than the dresses. (Thank you for the box of warm jackets and hats! and books for fundraising!)) This volcano was spewing while I was there.
If you'd like to donate an "Offering" you can email me at humblequilts@gmail.com
Thank you for your consideration.
Will we be able to bid on your quilt?
ReplyDeleteI don’t have a finished quilt but I have a quilt top and a bag with all the patterns and some of the blocks from another quilt that I was going to take to Goodwill. Let me know if you wanted unfinished things.
ReplyDeleteSure! If it won't work for the auction I can sell them and donate the funds. That is what I did with the book sale. Feel free to email me at humblequilts@gmail.com Thank you!
