Quilters consortium of New York State raffle quilt.

This is our raffle quilt constructed by several different guilds and members of the consortium.  It is 90 x 90 and the proceeds benefit the Linda Storrings Educational Fund.   Linda, who passed away this past year, was a very integral part of the consortium since its inception.   She worked tirelessly on membership and making sure all information was up to date.   She transitioned the process from all paperwork to computer during her term,   The scholarship is so named because of her efforts and love of quilting.  The fund will benefit guilds by awarding a scholarship to aid in bringing national teachers to our local area. To purchase tickets, see any member or guild member or visit www.qnys.org.
