The River Heritage Quilters' Guild recently raffled a patriotic quilt, raising more than $600 for the local chapter of the American Red Cross for disaster relief in the Southeast Missouri area.
Tracy Louden, guild president, said making the quilt helped members cope with the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, showed their patriotism and helped a vital organization.
The quilt was won by Betty Phillips from Perryville, Mo.
