Life After the Quilt
Today I parted with the Seahawks quilt which has been my side kick for several weeks now. I really didn't want to keep it since I'm really not a football fan but yet there was a part of me that was sad to see it go too. In a small way it was a tangible link to Selah. Well anyway lets get past the sentimental things and move on to the fundraiser results. From the bake sale, raffle tickets, and donations at the events we added $1500 to our adoption fund. Thanks to each one of you that donated whether time quilting the quilt or money. It was all greatly appreciated. We can't wait to share with Selah how many people were behind getting her home.

Quilt Raffle
I want to share about this amazing idea that has totally been a God thing the whole way. A few months ago I set out to make a baby quilt that we would raffle off for a fundraiser. In fact I was at Joann Fabrics getting the finishing supplies when this idea came to me. Make a Seahawks lap quilt. First off I'm not a football fan and didn't even know their colors. So home I went to check out Pinterest Seahawks quilt ideas. I found one but no instructions came with the lovely picture so on to a geometry lesson and practice blocks to make sure everything was right. I now have a pattern that maybe when I'm done with it I will share. The quilt was finished with record speed for me and thanks to some lovely ladies from church for their machine quilting abilities. Quilt size is 65 x 72. Opportunities continue to open up for us to share this with different people like the local newspaper, a local TV station, and a donated booth at a craft bazaar. Here's a picture of the quilt.
We are now selling $2.00 raffle tickets until Novemebr 22. You can purchase tickets several different ways. The preferred way is to mail us a check:
