We’re excited to announce that our auction quilt for 2025 has been completed! Thanks to wonderful quilt artists Carol Morgen and Nancy Backlund for again donating their amazing talents.
This year’s quilt measures 84″ square and features the stunning yellow and green center panel “Fantasia” surrounded by piecework in purple jewel-tones with highlights of lavender, cream, and light green. The leaf-patterned quilt stitching beautifully echoes the panel’s theme.
The quilt will be on display at Care Partner’s 10th Anniversary Celebration and Open House, Tuesday, May 20 from 2-4pm. We’ll then bring it to Drury Lane Books, where it will be on display until August 23rd.
Quilt raffle tickets will be available to purchase beginning in May for $5 each at Drury Lane Books, Care Partners offices, Johnson Heritage Post, and other area locations (check back for details coming soon!)
The quilt raffle drawing will be held on Saturday, August 24th about 15 minutes before the close of our Annual Ice Cream Social which takes place at Sydney’s Frozen Custard from 2-4pm.
Thanks to Carol and Nancy, to our friends at Drury Lane Books, to the area businesses and organizations who sell tickets, and to all who purchase a ticket (or MORE!) to help us support older adults in Cook County on the journey of aging and end-of-life.
