THE SANDPIPER QUILTERS QUILT RAFFLE 2010     Quilt Winner - Carol Ewles (to the right of the quilt, behind the kneeling Quilter)   Supporting Our Community!   The Sauble Sandpiper Quilters are a very diverse group of Quilters. They come from all walks of life, possess varying levels of talent and love to encourage and assist new Quilters. The group provides social, motivational and educational opportunities for all new members, experienced and novice. As well, they provide a huge Community Service in the monies they raise each year with their Quilt Raffles. The Sauble Sandpipers held their semi-annual quilt draw in conjunction with the Shoreline Artists Art Exhibition & Art Sale on August 15, 2010. Winner of the "Simple Scrappy Treasures" quilt was Carol Ewles of Sauble Beach (shown to the right of the quilt, behind the kneeling Quilter). This quilt was created using 11 different blocks made from scraps of material donated by individual quilters. Each set of blocks was then custom quilted. This beautiful quilt took many hours of work by the Sandpiper Quilters and is truly a "piece of art". The 2nd prize of a beautiful "sunflower" wall hanging was won by Matthew Ertel. Lastly, Peg Travis of Sauble Beach won 2 sets of pillowcases. One set a Christmas pattern and the second is a novelty pattern. Mrs. Travis is continually one of the top sellers of quilt tickets and her efforts are much appreciated. Thanks to all who bought tickets - your support of the Sandpiper Quilters means so much!
