My mother is a really talented quilter, and a few months ago was asked to help out a charity “Wrapped up in Sports” do a quilt that the Red Sox would be signing. It is a charity that Terry Francona works with, and most of the 2010 team signed. She was the first one to work on it, and all she received was the small piece of white fabric that the team had signed. She then went to work, and built a replica of Fenway for it, the Green Monster, and the Pesky and Fisk poles.
Well they auctioned it off for charity, and they didn’t list it very well. I remember seeing it end, and couldn’t believe how low price wise it went for, especially knowing how much work my own mother put in to it. I wished that I had bid on it for as cheap as it went for. Well flash forward to Saturday, my birthday, and I opened my last gift to find the following for my mother and father.
She also thought it was going to sell for way too low and put a bid in on it. The quilt is signed by all 5 Red Sox Starters (Beckett, Lester, Buchholz, Dice, Lackey) as well as the following Ortiz, Varitek, Delcarmen, Papelbon, Bard, Beltre, Youk, Pedroia, Francona, Scutaro, JD Drew, Ellsbury, Wakefield, and Boof Bonser.
