Kevin's items are above
Katherine's items above & below (as you can see the package included the biligual laptop~ This will come in great use when Katherine is stuck in bed sick & unable to go to school!)
Today's raffle is for a personalized, one-of-a-kind, LAP QUILT or BABY BLANKET or WALL HANGING
This item will make a good gift for:
A family member
A friend
A child (sponsored or otherwise)
An arriving infant
Yourself
The quilt can be themed any way you like. Some ideas are:
Favorite colors
Favorite animal(s)
Favorite hobbies
Children/grandchildren/sponsored children
All of the above
The quilt squares can be:
Made from material matching your theme
Made from photographs or other graphics
Embroidered with pictures or words
I will work with the winner to design a quilt that will perfectly compliment the recipient. I've included a photograph showing one of the many fabric shelves in my mother's sewing room - if she doesn't have the materials you need on hand, no problem, the fabric store is just down the road.
DELIVERY BY CHRISTMAS IS GUARANTEED!
As an example of what can be done, here are some photos of various wall hangings around our house:
The pictures on the "Frog Theme", "Carousel", and "Child's Bedroom" are all done with embroidery.
The red and blue squares are from a wall hanging in progress that we are making for my sponsored child, Wilson. It is themed after his favorite Honduran futbal team, Olimpia, and the logos were printed onto the fabric using files I downloaded online. The square in the center shows him, his mother, and his brother wearing the hats and jerseys that Victor and I bought them on our last visit.
Unfortunately we can't set up a Firstgiving page for this fundraiser, because CI would not get the money until February. The rep told me that Ecuador customs will hold the package for only around 2 weeks before considering it abandoned. Therefore, all raffle tickets must be purchased by gifting me money through my PayPal account. The address is: scubaboarder33@gmail.com
This method means that you will not be able to see how many tickets other people have purchased, so you can't gauge your competition. You'd better contribute BIG, just to be safe. Good luck!
