Larry Gehbauer’s stained glass piece – “Autumn in Brown County, Falling Leaves”, as shown below will be an auction item this year:
RAFFLE OF QUEEN-SIZED QUILT - This year’squilt pattern consists of blocks of two alternating patterns -- the Ohio Star pattern, with red triangle patterns on a cream background, and the Grandma’s Flower Basket pattern, with a multifloral pattern for the basket and 3 quilted tulips on a cream background springing from the basket. The tulip design was created by Dolores Francis, head of the quilting group. The quilt edging is the same multifloral pattern as in the basket design. The quilt top was purchased from Dorothy Kramer in Westport, IN, and was hand-quilted by St. Agnes Guild members and their friends (Quilters were Toni Page, Donna Braas, JoAnn Garreaux, and Dolores Francis, with binding by Julianna Crawley). Suggested donation amount is $1 per ticket or $5 for 6 tickets. Drawing will take place at 4:00 pm on Saturday, November 5, in the basement of the church. (You do not have to be present to win.) Tickets will be sold after masses at St. Agnes for three weekends beginning October 15, and at the Bazaar on November 4-5. Parishioners will also receive tickets in the mail in early October, which can be returned to the office or to Guild members selling tickets after masses in October. (Note: The Quilt Raffle is a charity-gaming exempt event approved by the Indiana Gaming Commission. No one under 18 years of age may purchase or sell a ticket, nor win the raffle prize or accept it on behalf of another person. House rules for the raffle will be posted at the bazaar.)
