Thanks to WSPA newsletter editor Frauke Elber for sending us this announcement.
Here’s part of a interview with Frauke at the 2012 SSA convention in Reno in which she describes the history of the quilt.
Each year the WSPA conducts a raffle to raise money for scholarships. This year’s raffle is a quilt project, which was started in 2006 with the gathering of squares. Squares were donated by over a dozen WSPA members and Arleen Coleson lovingly assembled and quilted this beautiful work of art. We are very excited to present this to the soaring community, and looking forward to it finding a loving and appreciative home. The quilt size is 48”x64” and can be used as a throw or a wall hanging (casing for a hanging rod is part of the quilt.)
