Representing the collective handiwork of some of its members, this eye-catching quilt was happily displayed by The Crossroads Quilters Guild at this year's Patagonia Fall Festival.On the left is Sarah Cobb and on the right Sandi Wolf.
The guild is a non-profit organization for people with an interest in the art of quilting to meet, share ideas and learn from each other.
In their ten years of existence the group has developed into a source of guidance for beginning quilters, a place to share new ideas, patterns and completed projects, and a working group to make charity quilts for a variety of organizations, as well as a place to visit with old friends and make new ones.
The quilt titled "Crossroads" is the brainchild of two of the members, Janice Urman and Dorothy Dannis, with the inspiration and handiwork of sixteen other quilters who designed blocks with themes relating to Santa Cruz County.

Proceeds of over $1500 up to publication time from the sale of the quilt raffle will be used for expenses related to the Guild's charitable activities. The winner of the raffle will be chosen and announced in early December.
