Donation
from Sunshine Quilters of San Diego Quilt Guild
Raises $190 in Silent Auction!
Through our friend Betty Alofs (www.BettyAlofs.com),
Gaylon Monteverde of the Sunshine Quilters of San
Diego Quilt Guild (www.SunshineQuilters.com)
contacted us and offered a donation of two quilts.
We graciously accepted, and when they arrived, we
were thrilled. The two octagonal-shaped quilts were
beautiful. One used pink flowered fabric and fabric
with the pink awareness ribbon. The other was made
of fabric with red hearts and roses.
The
quilts arrived just two days prior to an event at
which Pink Cures was to be donating items to raise
money for the Susan G. Komen foundation. We took the
quilts and put them in a silent auction at the
event. At the end of the evening, we were elated to
learn that the pair of quilts fetched $190 at the
auction! The entire $190 was donated to Komen.
We
would like to thank the creator of the quilts, Nancy
Leggett, as well as Gaylon Monteverde, Betty Alofs,
and the entire Sunshine Quilters organization. Your
support means so much to us, and to those fighting
breast cancer.
If
you have items that you would like to donate to one
of our events, feel free to contact us. We attend
events as we learn about them. If you have an event
and would like donations of earrings or other items,
let us know. |
