Dear Lynda and Members of the Block Party,
Christmas seemed to come early this year. What a pleasant surprise it was to receive an enormous box in the mail from Florida. I knew it was coming and couldn’t wait to open it.

To say the least it was a breathtaking experience to view each of the five BEAUTIFUL quilts. It’s amazing how one block can be set in so many different ways and give each quilt a special uniqueness. The blocks are wonderful, the quilting is outstanding and the sentiment behind the names of the quilts: “Faith”, “Hope”, “Courage”, “Love” and “Cure” warmed my heart and will capture the hearts of many buyers.

The bond that quilters share over so many things in life has manifested itself once again with your contribution of Quilts From Around the Globe. You continue to help us fulfill our Mission Statement: To use the art and business of quiltmaking to pursue medical advances against breast and gynecological cancers. Funds will be raised for research, to continue the education of medical professionals and to support clinical organizations that raise awareness, offer detection, and provide treatment to all women.

You can be assured that the money we raise from the sale of your quilts will be used to help in the fight of women’s cancers.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for supporting us over the years and for joining us in this huge endeavor.

May God Bless ALL of you………………………….Jeannie Coleman, President

Quilt for a Cause, Inc.


                                      Faith, Hope, Courage, Love, Cure


If you are not a member of the Back Door Friends Pattern Club and would like to participate in the next "Block Party" event.........please contact me.  I'm looking for group leaders around the globe for the next event.  Let me know if you would be interested.

Let's be among the many that help "delete" this horrible disease.  Again, I would also like to Thank everyone that helped on this project.  I could NOT have done any of this without your help. 

Until next time,  Lynda
