OK guys, I think I may have a plan for a quilt to raise funds for our
rescue kids vet care when needed.  Rather than my making a quilt for a
raffle or e-bay auction and taking the chance it might not appeal to a
lot of folks, so not much money is raised, I've developed plan B.
 
Some of you know what *Memory* quilts are, for those that don't, it is
made of photographs of people/places/anything we like, transferred to
white or off white fabric squares, framed picture style with fabric of
any color desired and made into a quilt any size wanted.  My plan is to
take custom orders from you, you supply the photos of your fuzzies, or
other if desired, I'll do the rest.  Or, for those that wish to be more
involved I can tell you how to get photo onto fabric I'll supply.  Just
need a printer, special paper, and a special setting agent.  At first this
made a rather stiff fabric photo, with today's products they feel just
like nice soft fabric.  You get a quilt you like/want, the fuzzies get
some $$ to help them out.  I've yet to come up with a $$ amount to make
this doable, still thinking.  I'll need to cover my expenses, plus a bit
for my time, the rest can go into a vet/vets fund???  Open for ideas here,
don't wish to do anything you all don't approve of.  I'm setting aside
the month of November, part of December to do this.  THINK CHRISTMAS GIFT!
Tell me what you think.
 
In Touch, Ardith
