Quigley House(Green Cove Springs, Fla.)

Description: This quilt hangs in the waiting area of a new facility for this shelter for battered women.

Purpose: To thank donors who gave $1,000 or more in a campaign to raise $2-million to build the new shelter.

Number of donors included: 150

How donors are honored: Names of campaign donors are engraved on metal squares, which are connected by ribbon to form a wall hanging that resembles a homemade quilt.

Creative strategy: To show that donations help women and further the shelter’s goal: Just as quilt making combines tattered pieces of cloth into a durable cover, the shelter works to make something strong out of what was discarded.
