Raffle Quilt 2012: Watercolor ReflectionsAbout the QuiltEvery other year, the Chelmsford Quilt Guild makes a group project to be raffled in conjunction with our Quilt Show. This year's quilt, Watercolor Reflections is a striking, contemporary quilt, an original design by guild member Kristy Medina. It features many techniques including hand and machine applique, and curved piecing. It is made from 100 percent cotton batik fabrics in bright yellows, fuschias and orange-red on a mixed green and blue background with black. Watercolor Reflections was quilted by guild member Cheryl Dennis of Finally Quilted. It measures 96" square. Raffle TicketsThe quilt will travel throughout New England to shows and other Guilds with volunteers from our Guild who will sell tickets for it, or you can buy tickets directly from guild members. Tickets will also be available at our Quilt Show. The cost of the tickets are $1.00 each or 6 for $5.00. The drawing will take place and the winner of the quilt will be announced at our May Guild Meeting on May 21, 2012. If the winner is not present, she or he will be contacted soon after to arrange delivery of the quilt. Proceeds from the sale of raffle tickets for this quilt are shared with the New England Quilt Museum and Elder Services of Merrimac Valley. If you are not in the New England area, but still are interested in purchasing tickets for the Raffle Quilt, please contact the web site manager or any member of the Chelmsford Quilters' Guild.
