Barbara Edwards, the quiltmaker who each year makes a beautiful quilt to raffle off for the sanctuary, called to say that our blog readers had already bought all the raffle tickets she had planned to sell for this year's quilt! She was just amazed at the response she's received in the mail so far. Because we know that some checks are still on the way to her or about to be mailed, Barbara will expand the raffle ticket allotment to accommodate everyone. So Barbara will allocate raffle tickets to all the folks who have sent in their checks or whose envelopes are postmarked no later than this Saturday, May 31st.
It's clear that there will definitely be far more than $1,000 from this raffle for the animals -- and that is a real blessing! Thank you!
That's fantastic! I knew Barbara could sell more than the alloted number of tickets! Way to go, Barbara! You are the super duper fund raising quilt maker for the RDR!
Big congrats hugs,
ginger, Tobias & Tlingit

This is awesome! I'm sure all the entrants will be thrilled to see the RDR benefit! It is one gorgeous quilt and I'm sure even better in person.
