 2008 Opportunity Quilt
  "Springtime Rhapsody"

This year's Opportunity Quilt was won by Lisa Stine, the harpist from Nevada City who gives free lessons to cancer patients and their families and works with music, especially Celtic, with kids. A fitting home for the "Rhapsody". Nancyan sold her the tickets and is one of her students. She will deliver the quilt or already has.

We hope that Ms. Stine will enjoy our "hand quilted" Broderie Perse appliqué quilt. The Broderie Perse appliqué is used in antique and reproduction quilts. The end result is a lovely item that will add charm to her home.

Visit the Opportunity Quilt webpage to see more photographs and the names of those that worked on it.

   Speakers Need Housing - 2008

Did you know that many of our speakers request to stay with guild members?

Think what a treat it would be to have a guild speaker stay at your home and have breakfast with you!

And, if you do graciously open your home to a speaker, you will get a free seat in the workshop of your choice. How sweet is that!

If you are interested in hosting a speaker,
