My guild's donation quilt spent most of the past year in my library (safe from the pets!) Next week it goes to it's new home. This quilt raised over $3,000 for Camp Rainbow, a camp for Children with Cancer. The quilt design is from the book "Simply Vintage" from Blackbird Designs. The piecing and applique was stitched by over 30 members of Pieceful Hearts Quilters.
I spoke with the new owner today and she is so excited...so I guess I'm ok with it leaving!
Our next quilt (2012) debuts at out quilt show on the 14th...somewhere a quilter is stitching the binding on! Now time for the guild to start planning for 2013....lots of work but a good cause!

Love the quilt - such a great cause and terrific fund raiser! Thanks for sharing!
Since I didn't win last year's quilt, I'm glad that there is a new quilt to be won. I am excited to see all the quilts this month at your guilds' show and next month at my guilds show.
Your guild quilt is a beautiful work of art, I'm sure the new owner will love it just as much as you do. How wonderful that you raised that much money on a single quilt, that must be a record.
What a beautiful quilt for a wonderful cause. Congratulations to all of those who worked so hard!
So, so beautiful. I can only imagine how hard it is to say goodbye to such a work of art! Glad the $$$ was so much.
oh this is a quilt I wish I would have won!

What a gorgeous quilt. Congratulations on doing so well for Camp Rainbow.
Congratulations on raising so much $$$ for such a worthy cause! What a lovely quilt and I'm glad it's going to a home where it will be cherished.
That is a good amount of money raised. Someone has won a beautiful quilt. I wondered what pattern was used and now I recognize it.
That was a great sum to raise, congratulations. It sounds like it's gone to a good home which is great because it's a beauty.
That quilt is just so beautiful!
