OUR REDEEMER'S QUILTERS
Our Redeemer's Quilters have been designing, cutting, pinning, tying, sewing and stitching quilts for many many years. The gifts of donation have been in the hundreds. The need is great.
Some of the quilts are given to the following:
Our Redeemer's Graduating Seniors; Heartland Girls Ranch; Shelter House-Benson;
Shelter House-Benson; Swift County Human Services; Benson-Area Local Needs; Luther Crest Bible Camp;
Julie Grothe Homeless Ministry; Marie Sandvik Center; Benson Prom Afterbash; and
Glacial Ridge Conference.
Our Redeemers Quilters meet Wednesdays at 9:00 until 11:00 am. We
enjoy a cup of coffee with a potluck snack mid-morning and then continue our
love of quilting and giving. The members are: Lillian Ose, Vera Lund,
Sandra Hutchinson, Mary Ann Larson, Gladys Pederson, Genora Bogie, Dorothy
Schloendorf, Mary Tatge, Inez Larson, Beatrice Beyer, Sylvia Retrum, Bernice
Nordaune, Joan Razink, Angie Lee, Ruby Simonson, Dianne Doscher, Alvera Haugen,
Jo Bronniche, Lu Hanson, Vi Grothe, and Elaine Mitteness.
Come and join us and enjoy fellowship and so much more!
The Our Redeemer's Quilters are involved in making baby quilts. With each baby baptism at Our Redeemer's, the parents are presented with a baby quilt from the Our Redeemer's Quilters.
ORW Quilt for the Luther Crest Bible Camp Auction
The Luther Crest Quilt of 2011 is
called Disappearing Nine-Patch. The quilt is a scrappy quilt made from
fabric scraps found in the quilting fabric closet. Scrappy quilts as well as
the nine-patch pattern have been around for a long time. It is a way of using
the scraps of material so that nothing goes to waste. The fabric is fabric that
has been donated by many people over the years. You may even recognize some of
the fabric used in this scrappy nine-patch quilt. The nine-patch pattern has
been around for a good long time; however, with the disappearing nine-patch
pattern it brings a new dimension of creation.
The batting, inside border fabric, outside border fabric and thread were the only purchases made this year.
The size is 96" x
108".
