DOGWOOD CRAFTERS

Each year we have a Quilt Raffle to raise money to promote interest in local arts and crafts. The quilt committee chooses the pattern and material for the quilt, then completes it and has it machine quilted. We sell tickets all year, with the drawing in December... In 1976, an optimistic band of mountain crafters applied for $1,000 of leftover Bicentennial grant money in order to start a craft cooperative. At the time handmade items were not particularly valued by most Americans, but the original dozen crafters persevered and celebrated on the day the shop took in $50...
