logo shirts needed

by John Longballa

We need the old shirt off your back, please! A generous soul has been making quilts out of homebrew club shirts, then auctioning them at the national homebrew conventions. She makes one quilt per convention out of logo shirts from the surrounding area of the convention. This year she would like to make a quilt out of MN/WI/IA/ND homebrew club logo shirts, so if you have one to donate, then please contact me or Chip Walton. All the money raised by the quilt sale goes to charity. Personal. Professional.
