opportunity quilt

Members of the Flying Needles Quilt Guild have been making Opportunity Quilts every other year since the guild began in 1990. 

Tickets for the Opportunity Quilt by the Flying Needles Quilt Guild, a 503 (c) (3) organization, are available with a suggested donation of $1.00 per ticket or 6 tickets for $5.00. Your donation may be tax-deductible. Funds raised are used to support supply costs for charitable items the guild can make and donate to local organizations.  

Our 2021 Opportunity Quilt is "Sunflower Gatherings " designed by Lisa Bongean of Primitive Gatherings, measuring 68" x 68." The quilt is wool appliqued onto cotton and was assembled by several members and quilted by one of Ruby Blue in Ohio.   Our 2021 Opportunity quilt, Sunflower Gatherings, placed second at the Pigeon Forge A Mountain Quiltfest, May 5-8, 2021.  

Tickets are available 1 for $1.00 or 6 for $5.00.   You may contact Bunny Orr at Solara_mom@yahoo.com.

The drawing was held on December 9,  2021 at our general meeting.  The Opportunity Quilt was won by Jo Koehler from Iowa.
