|
|
Well it's that time of year again. The quilt ladies have been putting together a Weim rescue quilt every year since 2001 and raising in total over $35,000 for Weim rescue.
I have had the priviledge of seeing most of the quilts in person and have seen squares for this years quilts already. The ladies ALWAYS put together a lovely product and it's more impressive in person. If you'd like to try to win a hand-made, Weim themed, one-of-a-kind quilt, and help National Weim Rescue at the same time, please buy LOTS OF TICKETS!!!
I'll try to post some photos of this year's quilt squares soon.
Thank you,
Anne

Hi everybody!
I have quilt tickets all ready to send you.
$3.00 each
4 for $10.00
10 for $20.00
20 for $40.00
This year's theme is The Versatile Weim and will feature Weimaraners doing all kinds of different activities. The drawing will by held at the WCA National Specialty Show. Need not be present to win. Make checks out to WFF and note that they are for Rescue. All money goes to support the expenses of rescuing abandoned Weimaraners, putting them in good health, beginner training and sometimes boarding (when foster homes are full).
Last year's Rescue quilt can be viewed here:

There are still a few of this year's squares not yet turned in but hope they will be posted soon. Each square comes from a diferent place - several are international (Spain, Canada, Germany, etc. ) and the total assembled quilt is a fantastic heirloom.
Send quilt raffle ticket orders (with checks) to:

I know what you mean...I never win things...LOL!
Unfortunately I think it's just one of a kind, hence the raffle. I'll buy some tickets though. |
