A Dick Cookson original
This quilt could be yours! The Bluffton Lions Foundation is raffling this original Dick Cookson quilt to benefit the Bluffton Hospital. The quilt design is "Tree of Life." The quilt measures 96 by 103 inches. The quilt winner will be announced at this year's Blaze of Lights on Nov. 27. Cookson, a member of the Bluffton Lions, spent 900 hours, including eight months of cross-stitching to complete the work. Raffle tickets are $5 each or three for $10. Dick Boehr, a member of the Lions, was selling raffle tickets and displaying the quilt during last weekend's fall festival.
