Show Raffle Quilt

You will also be able to pick up your raffle tickets for Blooming Star, so that you may support Mt. Kisco Interfaith Food Pantry, our chosen charity for this year.  MKIFP, which is made up of 13 member congregations of various denominations, provides food each week to 270 families from Northern Westchester.

Every year, Comfort Quilts has a Summer Project.  This summer each participant supplied their favorite focus fabric and Carol Auer and Karen Carlson created packets of fabric to match.  You may be  one of the lucky members who gets to select from the many quilts created as part of the You Gotta Love It Project” by taking a chance on the Winner’s Choice Raffle.  Winners can select as their prize any of the quilts that are exhibited on the wall in the cafeteria at our October Guild meeting.  The more tickets that are sold the more quilts will be raffled.  Proceeds go to the Guild to help support Comfort Quilt Activities.
