FMH Auxiliary Baby Quilt Raffle Winner

FMH Auxiliary quilt winner 2015

Pictured behind the quilt are Auxiliary Members, Carol Brach, Joyce Williams, and Pat Kenshalo, with this year’s Baby Quilt winner, Brandy Crane and FMH Foundation Director, Charlotte St.Ledger.

Carla and Robert Metcalf of Fairfield was the winner of the Fairfield Memorial Hospital Auxiliary handmade baby quilt that was recently raffled off.

The FMH quilters finish on average 3-6 quilts each year, making about $1,000 for the Hospital Auxiliary.  The volunteers meet each Thursday from about 8 a.m. – 4 p.m. in the quilting room in the white building directly behind the Hospital. Quilting is done for individuals who furnish a quilt top and then the volunteer quilters finish the quilts for the individual clients.  There is always a large demand for quilts to be finished; therefore, anyone who has some experience in quilting would be welcomed to join the volunteer quilters.  The additional volunteers would help ensure that the quilts are finished in a timely manner for clients and additional funds would be raised to benefit the Hospital.
