Default final update on table runners for benefit

The runners and mats were put in matching pairs for display for a silent auction. They had a lot of donations to choose from and my runner sets did not get one bid. Do feel bad about that but it looked like a Lot of items did not get a bid, at least half. I made 2 round, 3 layer hot pot mats, they had a bid of $5 so someone liked those.
The food items were selling very well, next time I do a benefit--taking food items for sure.

The dinner and auction brought in nearly $3200 for the family. Just disappointed in the response to so many of the nice hand created things not getting a bid. Someone made several toddler sized sweaters and not a bid on them.
Being in a small farming area the money raised was wonderful.
