The Harlan Valley Quilters

In our gathering, we honor and celebrate our diversity. We do not seek a unity that would deny our differences. We seek rather a deeper union, a union quilted through choice and intent, through time and attention, through respect and compassion, until we recognize that we have become a whole cloth, made rich and textured and vibrant through our differences. We are quilted together. We are bound to one another. We belong to and with each other. --Mary Pauluk

2016 Raffle Quilt....

Each year we gather together to create a raffle quilt

to donate to the

Women's Cancer Coalition

This is for 2016

The Jane Sassaman fabrics were donated to HVQ

by the sweet and thoughtful Nancy Bryant.

We are using all of the fabrics left over from the top...

to create some "back art"

There are 6 HVQ members in the Palace today...

Once the design work was done...

it was time to stitch it all together

There was plenty to keep everyone busy...

Kathi is our chief designer...

I decided to add one more border treatment

to the quilt top...

The Quilt Back is coming along nicely...

We barely have enough left over fabrics...

Many Hands.....Make Light Work

I added 2 small strips of striped fabric to the top and left side

70 x 70 inches

The Quilt Top and Quilt Back are ready to baste...

more to come.

Everything is Better When it is Quilted,

The Harlan Valley Quilters
