Our quilters have been busy.  Charleen, Shirley, Jean, Violet, Marge, Judy, Connie, Paulette, Doris and Jeannie meet every Wednesday to quilt and chat.  The quilt pictured above is their 76th quilt – the 23rd “Habitat Quilt.”  The quilters have raised over $22,000 for Habitat over the years. They have also donated to other charities.  You’ve got to admit…. this would look good on your bed!

So… the Habitat Quilt is done and on display at Sisters’ Fabrics in Hastings.  It will also be displayed at Hastings Summer Fest and Freeport Fun Days.  The quilt is being raffled away.  Raffle tickets cost $2 each or three for $5.  All the money from ticket sales goes to Habitat for Humanity of Barry County and Lake Odessa.  You can purchase them at church (see Marge), or possibly at the places it is displayed.  The drawing will be held at 7 p.m. on October 16
