The Friends of Les Cheneaux Community Library are also holding a silent auction, running concur- rently with the foundation's efforts. The items for bid are two handmade quilts and an afghan.

One quilt was finished by the Bethel Lutheran Church quilters, with the materials and idea for the quilt stemming from Wendy Lopes, who passed away before the quilt was completed. The theme of this quilt is the Red Hat Society. Proceeds from the Red Hats quilt and the rose-colored crocheted afghan, made by Jeanne Hayes, will go to the Friends of Les Cheneaux Library for programing.

A second handmade quilt is being auctioned at the library to benefit Relay for Life efforts.
Wildflowers are the theme of Moira Wilson's Adirondack chair.
