The 2019 Quilt of the Year is a butterfly quilt design that features the remnant pieces from two gown requests made in the 2019 calendar year. The background fabric will remain the same for each quilt block, as well as, the center black section will be the same fabric used as well.
It is important to note that this quilt will NOT be complete until sometime during the 2021 calendar year at the earliest. We are still working on a couple of previous year's quilts, however, now that we have announced the design and are steadily working on these already raffled off quilts, we would like to host the raffle. Each ticket helps support our organization have the supplies needed to continue to make gown requests, as well as, cover the shipping expenses to families worldwide. This is truly a one-of-a-kind quilt with more meaning in each stitch than anything else ever made. The winner will be drawn and announced on FB Live on our Facebook page at 8pm EST on February 1st, 2021. Photos of the progress made will also be posted in an album on our Facebook page too. Please follow us for more information and updates! |
Our annual fall raffle is already coming together! Last year we gave away $2,600 in prizes throughout the month of November, and this year we will be giving away more!
How the raffle works: each day in November we draw one winner (two winners on Black Friday) from the tickets purchased. You may win more than once, but can only win once per ticket. Meaning, if you purchase 5 tickets, you could win 5 days of prizes, but if you only purchase 1 ticket, you can only win one day. The winners are drawn using random. org's number generator, and are posted with the prize they won on our Facebook page. This year we will also have a Facebook Event page for the raffle, and will post the winners inside the event as well. Tickets will be on sale throughout the year and all month during the raffle as well. Prizes will ship the following Monday, with all items arriving before the Christmas holiday. For every 100 tickets sold, we will also draw a special surprise winner for a randomly chosen item that has been donated for the raffle. This is in addition to the prizes each day. Last year we gave away two special surprise drawings as well. You will not be charged shipping costs for your raffle prize, if you would like to donate towards the shipping you may, but it is not required. |
