This stunning “Frolic” quilt will be raffled off at the 2025 Hands All Around 19 Quilt Show, to be held May 3 and 4 at the Robert Crown Gymnasium, Hampshire College (893 West Street/Route 116, Amherst, MA).

It was created by guild member Carolyn Kuras from a pattern by Bonnie Hunter.  It was long-arm quilted by 2 Friends Quilting studio in Haydenville, MA.

You can see the quilt and buy raffle tickets at the Franklin County Fair (September 5–8), at Valley Fabrics (October 17), and the Deerfield Holiday Sampler in West Springfield (November 16–17). Guild members also sell tickets. 

Show attendees can see the quilt in person and can purchase tickets both Saturday and Sunday of show weekend, prior to the drawing on Sunday afternoon.  The winner need not be present to win!

Proceeds from ticket sales for the raffle quilt go toward Guild activities and are donated to hospice and other selected charities.
