"MAGICAL MOMENTS" 2015 ENKA QUILT

This year’s En Ka quilt pays tribute to the 2015 En Ka Fair theme of “Magical Moments.” Led by Quilt Chair, Bea Grayson, this quilt was started two years ago after the 2013 quilt was completed. “There was so much donated fabric left over that we decided to make a backing with the remnants instead of purchasing more large pieced fabric, explained Grayson. “When we completed the “back” we decided by unanimous consent that was too beautiful and “magical” not to be seen on the front of the quilt and thus it became the beginning of the 2015 “Magical Moments” quilt. There is a special black toned fabric with illustrations of a rainbow and a pot of gold which is being used in this quilt,” said Grayson. “It still fits the theme of this year’s En Ka Fair because whoever buys the winning raffle ticket will experience a MAGICAL MOMENT worth as much as a pot of gold!”

The quilt will be displayed at the Winchester Cooperative Bank beginning April 30th, and will be raffled off at 9:00pm, on May 16th, at the Information Booth of the Fair. Raffle tickets are $1 each (or 6 for $5) and are available at the Winchester Cooperative Bank. Tickets will also be for sale at the Fair. All proceeds will benefit the many charities and non-profit organizations that En Ka supports.

The En Ka Society is a volunteer non-profit organization comprised of women in Winchester. The Society’s objective is to provide aid, through volunteer services and through raising funds, for local charities, non-profit organizations and other groups that serve the people of Winchester. En Ka’s primary sources of raising funds are the annual En Ka Fair, held every May, and the En Ka Exchange, a clothing consignment store located at 1037 Main Street in Winchester.
