face=Arial>You remember reading about the story that started this quilt, when
newly-arrived and charmingly mischevious Mariah the Marauder of Hawaii stole her
mom's (Val) underwear from her suitcase? Those purloined panties are now
the centerpiece of the quilt, and inspired 23 more squares, each handmade by a
Drooler, featuring pieced bassets, quilted bassets, basset fabric, basset
love. </FONT></DIV>

face=Arial>(It's hard for me to write this posting encouraging everyone to buy
tickets -- because I LOVE THIS QUILT so much that I desperately want it to be
mine mine mine! But even more, I want everyone to know of its unique
meaning and beauty. And even even more, I want this quilt raffle to raise
as much money as possible for lonely bassets.) </FONT></DIV>

choose which rescue(s) will receive all of the proceeds from the raffle.
It's a win-win-win situation. (Especially if it's me who wins!)
