The Creative Quilters of Citrus County completed the 2004 top. It looks fabulous, and was basted at the Symposium. After a warm reception at the Boca meeting, it was taken home by Harriet Rudoff for binding, a label, and a sleeve. Thanks to Harriet for including all the block makers on the label! The quilt is 64" x 64", and has blocks that use a wide variety of quilting techniques to depict Florida counties. Has an appraised value of over $3,000.

Tickets are only $1 each.

Thanks to Ginny King at Queen Ann’s Lace for showing the quilt this summer. It will be in the Jacksonville area, at quilt shops and entered in QuiltFest, until it arrives in Daytona to be awarded a permanent home on Oct. 2.

When you print the picture from the website, please consider making an extra one to give to another member who can't print one. The drawing will be held at our Fall Annual Meeting in Daytona, October 2, 2004.

We need someone to be QUILT NANNY: take care of the finished quilt and help get it around to groups & shops who will sell tickets, have it in their show, etc. We can pass it around, "pony-express" style, so you don't have to take it everywhere yourself...just keep track of it!

Here's the blocks that have been sent in by members
and sewn into the SSQA 2004 Raffle Quilt.
