Our raffle quilt is a thing of beauty - well we think it is. It was made as a joint effort by members of the committee, from a pattern called "Stars in the Garden" by Lori Smith. The quilt was coordinated, designed and finished off by Chris O'Brien and quilted by an ex-committee member, Lizzy Hentze of Jacaranda Quilts in South Australia. 
For fun we entered it in the Royal Adelaide Show and were amazed and delighted when it won 1st prize in the Group Quilts section - and no, it was not the only quilt in that section! So, whoever wins it will own a prize winning quilt.
We still have tickets left at $2 each - $20 a book, but you will have to be quick as the raffle will be drawn in December. If you would like a ticket (or a book of tickets) you can contact Elvie Richardson or any of the committee members - email addresses on the website.
Here is a picture of the quilt with its ribbon.
