CHARITY QUILT SALE

My dear friend and fellow ebayer, Lisa (lisacb2005), has listed four children's quilts with the proceeds going to either the Make A Wish Foundation or the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Lisa is a member of two ebay groups, Rag Queen Quilters and Quilter's Corner Group. Another group member has a lovely little girl who was stricken with leukemia last year. She is doing well with her treatment, but is not yet in remission. Lisa wanted to do something to help out and asked the mom about it. Mom said they had been helped out by both organizations mentioned above so Lisa decided to make a quilt to sell on ebay with the proceeds going to the organizations. She put her idea out to her two groups and members responded with donations of rag quilt squares, fabric and appliques, all in teddy bear prints. Lisa organized the donations, was able to make four quilts - two twin sized, one crib size and one tag quilt - and she did the listings. You can check them out and bid on them at http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQfgtpZ1QQfrppZ25QQsassZlisacb2005. I am glad to have been able to play a tiny part in this endeavor, but the lion's share of the work was done by Lisa and she deserves all the credit. Good show, Lisa!!!

Now go check them out and bid, bid, bid!!! You can also check out the listings of the groups who participated in this project by searching RQQ or QCG.
