"Colors of the Community" Pinwheel Quilt

RAFFLE DRAWING: November 12, 2025

2025 Quilt Raffle

In 2024, the Northern Lights Quilt Guild was featured at the New Hampshire League of Craftsmen's Fair in Sunapee, highlighting our guild-wide Pinwheel Challenge. Jane Buskey, Barbara Gifford, Deb Hammond, and Stephanie Howes served as co-conspirators for quilt creation.

Barbara Gifford prepared hundreds of saturated, solid-colored half-square triangle blocks for our tent demonstration. At the August Fair, we invited attendees to design pinwheel blocks while Barb and Stephanie demonstrated the sewing process, bringing quilt creation to life! The crowd's excitement inspired us to invite creators back in August 2025 to see their blocks in the finished community quilt, which became our NLQG Raffle Quilt, allowing participants to buy chances on a quilt they helped create!
