The Prairie High School Technology Students of America
are making and selling quilt racks for a fundraiser for their trip to nationals.
I have included two pictures. The quilt racks are $40.00 and would
make a great Mother’s Day gift for that special mother on your list.
The club has about 15 racks left. They are built and ready to go
out the door. You can purchase the quilt racks by contacting any
TSA member, Jerry Richardson, or Alica Holthaus.
