Just as the pain we collectively experienced six years ago today will be seared on our hearts forever, so is our compassion for the victims of Sept. 11 and their families. We will always stand united in our pride for all of the great things our country has achieved. In loving remembrance of the 2,800 people killed that day, Ardith Raine and Linda Soule have donated a stunningly gorgeous "Americana" quilt for our September 2007 Friends of Ferret Shelters raffle. Tickets for Ardith's beautifully handmade quilt are just $5 apiece, and all of the proceeds will go to benefit the Ferrets With Soul(e) shelter near Lake Tahoe, Nevada!! Please take a moment to view the quilt, and 11 other terrific items up for grabs, at our website: http://www.shelterfriends.blogspot.com !! Some of the fabrics used in this quilt are rare and collectible, designed after the 9/11 attacks with proceeds donated to victims' families. The fabrics include Teddy bears with flags and reproductions of postcards from the WW II era. In shades of cream, red and blue, this quilt will look absolutely gorgeous on your bed or hung on your wall!! The quilt has a market value of more than $400!
