Cross Stitch Quilt

Hi there,  first I would like to thank you for visiting my Cross Stitch Quilt page.

  This quilt was made by all the ladies in the ranching community that I live in.  The purpose of this quilt was to raise money for several other communities that were devestated by fire.

Each lady, whether they be an experienced cross stitcher or not, contributed a square to this quilt. 

Each square is about 6.5 inches wide and long.  The lattice and stones are each 2 inches wide and 6 inches long.  Each stone is 2x2 inches.  The border strips are 4 inches wide.  The drop is 14 inches and starts at the beginning of the lattice on the sides.  If you need more info. to make this quilt, I would be happy to help you if you leave your name at my Message Board/Guestbook.  This can be accessed thru my homepage.

   We raffled off this quilt and raised over $800.00 which we dontated to the fire relief fund.   I have to add, this one note, we all cried when we had to raffle this off and we didn't win it.
   A lady from a northern community won it and so we can't even see it except in pictures like this.
