The 2007 Rat Terrier Rescue Quilt Project is finished at last! Elen Morell, our wonderful quilter, assembled and quilted yet another gorgeous offering for us this year and it was stunning, as always. Thank you so much, Elen, for your dedication and hard work. Without you we likely would not have had a quilt this year! Thank you!
One surprise was that there were enough blocks to make a second lovely lap quilt or wall-hanging! Together the two quilts raised....$3,020!
The money was split equally between Rat Terrier ResQ and Ratbone Rescues, both national 501c3 non-profit organizations who save the lives of Rat Terriers in kill shelters and other dire situations. The work they do is OUTSTANDING!
Their websites are www.ratterrierresq.com and www.ratbonerescues.com. Check them out...you might just find your new best friend!
All of the quilt blocks received for this year's Rat Terrier Rescue Quilt Project are shown below. These blocks came from far and wide to be assembled into a quilt that was "given away" in a drawing in December 2007.
Thanks to everyone who made a block (or a few!) and an especially heartfelt thank you to our wonderful quilter, Elen Morell!
