NSQG runs an annual fundraiser whose net proceeds benefit a local not-for-profit charitable organization selected each year by Guild members.
The prize is a bed-sized quilt made by Guild members on display at our May Quilt Show.
Donation $5 for each 6-ticket booklet.
Tickets are available starting 6 months before the drawing, held at our May Guild Meeting.
You do not need to be present to win.
For next time…
– If you would like to sponsor a future charity, please read our Charity Guidelines.
– If you or a group of friends are interested in overseeing the design and construction of a future fundraising quilt, the process is spread over almost two years with assistance from guild members:
– getting the design approved by the Board by the end of the current year guild season
– setting up for construction over the summer months
– overseeing the piecing, quilting, and binding thru the following year guild season and summer
– getting the quilt photographed over that second summer
– presenting the finished quilt to the membership at the second season September guild meeting.
– Past quilts may be seen here.
