2013 Y-Flyer Nationals Quilt

This is my annual donation quilt – the Y-Flyer Nationals quilt.  My husband, Kevin, and I have sailed Y-Flyers for over 30 years.  Every year the nationals regatta is held at a local sailing club.  Hosting the nationals is expensive and this is my way of giving back.  I make a quilt and tickets are sold, the money raised goes toward the club hosting the nationals to help offset the cost.  This year we raised $325.  The quilt was made from prior years nationals and internationals t-shirts (with a few traditional quilt blocks thrown in).  The winning ticket was drawn at the Beers Memorial Regatta in Atlanta, GA, with Buz Benzur as the winner.
