Club International to hold a QUILT AUCTION to raise funds to provide short- and
long-term disaster relief to Ukraine. Each participant will make a 16” x 16”
quilt (3 layers sandwiched, quilted and bound) inspired by the theme of
SUNFLOWERS. These quilts will be auctioned off June 8-10, 2022, by the
International Quilt Museum.<br></div><div><br></div><p class="" style="margin-top: 0px;">If you would like to participate, details are attached.<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> (Note: the attached flyer says you need to use the IQMs quilts as inspiration, but I'm taking that to loosely mean, make something with sunflowers in it - it can be sunflower fabric, a sunflower applique, a sunflower embroidery - anything to honor the national Ukrainian symbol of the sunflower.)</span><br></p><p class="" style="margin-top: 0px;">The quilt you make must measure 16” x 16”. I am happy to
submit your information and mail the quilts to Lincoln, Nebraska, but to do so,
