CALLING ALL QUILTERS and BAG LADIES for our FALL AUCTION 2022
Once again, the guild is planning a Fall Auction to raise funds for our charity projects. The dates for this year’s auction are Thursday, October 13th – Saturday, October 22, 2022. The auction will be held online through Auctria, same as last year. This is our main fund-raiser for ACQ.
How can you help? ---
1. We need items for the auction---these can be wall hangings, lap quilts, table toppers, runners, place mats, totes, zippered bags, aprons to name a few possibilities. The guild is looking for hand-crafted items. Holiday items are always a hit with bidders! You can submit your project forms on the www.acqcolorado.org website starting anytime. You may also drop off items to Barb Pond or bring them to our two pop-ups this summer. I want to give you plenty of time to get something made by September!
2. We will also need people to collect items at a “Pop-Up” event late August/ early September, people who have photography skills to make photos for the website, and people willing to distribute the goods to the winners at another Pop-Up event after the auction ends. Contact Barb Pond to help—this is a short time commitment—thanks.
Help support one of our guild’s primary purposes---charity quilts, including CPNLS, by helping with the fund raiser. This is the only event we sponsor as a guild to raise funds for batting, thread, backing fabric, and fabrics and lace for the CPNLS blankets. Please consider a contribution to help the cause.
Contact Barb Pond at vicepresident@acqcolorado.org or text/call at 303-910-2572. Thanks for your help!
