Habitat for Humanity Quilt

The Habitat for Humanity of Perry County, PA is sponsoring a dinner & quilt auction to raise funds to build homes for carefully selected and qualified lower income families who otherwise might not have been able to realize this important "American Dream"

The dinner & quilts will be auctioned off to raise funds. Saturday October 25 at the Highland Presbyterian Church in Newport. Additional information can be found at the following link http://www.habitatperrycopa.org/quilt_auction.html


The above photographs are of some of the numerous ladies of the "Perry County Piece Makers" Quilting Guild that volunteered their time to expertly hand quilt this beautifully crafted quilt. Each square is a different home to respresent the wonderful charity. A couple of these images will also be published in the soon available (in November of 2008) "Perry County In Focus" Photography Book that I mention in the previous post.
So if you are an admirer and collector of authentic hand made quilts, come out and bid for this gorgeous one of a kind quilt as well as other beautiful quilts, all for a great cause.
