Quilt Lady's one of a kind Lake Winnipesaukee quilt.
(IG, I hope you don't mind my adding the photo of the quilt to this thread.)
Should the other photos be moved here to this thread too?

Here is what the Lake Coasters look like. (They are much better in person.

)

The fishing book on the list "Angling in the Smile of the Great Spirit" is actually a donation from my brother aka gtxrider. I will be donating an 8x10 matted photograph by John David Geery entitled "Lake Chocorua and Loons".

I will also bring cold drinks for the fest.

See you on 9/8!

Rattlesnake Gal · 08-30-2007, 02:02 PM

Thanks for the wonderful Personalized House Plaque Goodsk8s! Sorry you cannot make it to the Fest.

It is a custom-cast aluminum house plaque, which reads "Welcome to the Lake" with space for a camp name ... street address ... family name, etc. It is available in one of four color combinations. (It has a retail value of $69, if anyone cares to know that ... )

Since it will be personalized and manufactured for the winner, it cannot be displayed at FFIV. It is my hope that "someone" can print a picture, with personalization instructions, for the raffle table. The winner can PM me to order. There are limitations on the number of characters available in four different configurations. The Plaque is available in Black/Gold (shown), Green/Gold, Dark Blue/Silver and Dark Blue/Gold.

The rough dimensions are 10.75" x 12.5". Personalization is one of four ways. Characters can be letters and/or numbers. Character counts are FIRM -- and spaces count as a character:

#1 (pictured) - Line 1 holds 5 3" , Line 2 holds 12 1.25"

#2 - Line 1 holds 12 1.25", Line 2 holds 12 1.25"

#3 - Line 1 holds 12 1.25", Line 2 holds 5 3"

#4 - Line 1 holds 8 2", Line 2 holds 8 2"

Production will take two weeks, plus time in transit from the factory. Let me know if this works for you, since I won't be able to attend (sniff!)

The plaque looks like this:

Here's another raffle item. This loon clock measures 13 inches across and at the top of each hour features the call of the loon. The loon call is light activated meaning it is louder in the daytime and softer at night. Battery operated. Every cottage should have one!
