Mayberry Quilt?
Perhaps those with the ability can come up with a wonderful design for a Mayberry Quilt and donate one to the Silent Auction, only raffle it off for $1 a ticket! I'd get several tickets and I expect there would be a long line to buy tickets! Drawing could be during or at the end of Col. Tim's Talent Time Saturday night. That would probably raise more for Surry Arts than the entire Silent Auction! Whaddya think? Any takers? ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.wbmutbb.com/
Mayberry Quilt
Auctioning a Mayberry quilt is a GREAT idea to raise money for the Surry Arts Council! I personally would buy at least 20 tickets! Brian Kaufman TAGS Fan of the Smokeys ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.wbmutbb.com/
Mayberry Quilt
Thanks Dewey, for mentioning the Mayberry Quilt I made. That quilt was made for the 25th Mayberry Days and had the shirts for each year of Mayberry Days. I worked with Tanya Jones with the Surry Arts Council and my Mayberry Family to obtain the shirts for the quilt. It was an honor, blessing and very humbling to make the quilt. Betty Blackmon bought the quilt at the live auction and donated it to the Surry Arts Council and as far as I know, now hangs back stage in the ladies dressing room and can been seen during the tours. I made and donated a couple of t-shirt lap quilts to the silent auction in the past and they were well received. Johnna, I look forward to hopefully meeting you and seeing the quilt you are making for Mayberry Days and your creativity, time and generosity will be enjoyed and appreciated by everyone. Our Mayberry family is the best! “Remembering Mayberry”. Pat Coleman Sent from my iPad ___ WBMUTBB mailing list WBMUTBB@wbmutbb.com http://www.wbmutbb.com/
Taylor Home and Mayberry quilt
I just re-watched The Wedding twice, and when Howard's mother and new stepdad drive away in their car, you can see that the Taylor Home appears to be three houses away. The porch is very evident, albeit plain without furniture. I'm sure this was done so as to disguise the location of Howard's residency. It was mentioned to make a Mayberry quilt for donation at Mayberry Days. While that is a wonderful suggestion, it is a mighty lofty endeavor. I am a true novice, but I have discovered the time and money that goes into materials. By the time I get my quilt back from the long arm quilt business, I will have close to $1,000 in labor and materials due to the special novelty fabric purchased, the special quilt design requested, and the batting, backing, and binding to be done. That being said, I know that this is for a fundraiser, which I'm all in favor of. SO - I will volunteer to make a smaller version of my quilt (such as a wall hanging or lap blanket highlighting episodes of the show) and have it quilted and donate it for a raffle at Mayberry Days in September. I plan to attend in person with one of my Blood Brothers, so we can hand-deliver it. I will wait to hear from "The Man" before I begin any kind of construction. Thank you.

Mayberry Quilt and donate one to the Silent Auction
I had a question about the quilt and possible auction. Would we be able to set it up so that those of us not fortunate enough to attend could still buy tickets and just pay shipping if we were lucky enough to win? Although I will probably be like Henry "The Jinx" Bennett and draw out the hat size, just thought it would open up the possibility of making a lot more money that way.
