Many of you reading this know or know of Chet aka "Chethro" … an avid West Virginia Guzzista.
Regrettably, Chet was in a very serious motorcycle accident involving a deer strike in early November.
Chet was hospitalized for weeks, in rehab for a lengthy period, and is finally at home with a long recovery period ahead.
Chet's good friend, Eric, was following Chet when the day turned Chet’s world upside-down, and has posted updates of Chet’s condition.
Eric’s wife is a skilled quilter, and had the idea to make Chet a quilt as a small blanket or throw that he might enjoy during his continued rehab. The quilt squares are made from the front and/or back of a T-shirt.
The quilt requires minimum of 12 tees, with 16 preferred; Moto Guzzi content, subject-matter front and rear would count as two. The size and condition is not overly important since she will be cutting them down to 12x12 squares.
That said, as we all probably know from our own collections, “some tees are better than others,” i.e., so more to choose from is a good thing. With Guzzisti, I am compelled to add “washed and clean” tees.
I suspect we all have tees that could be of service in this great cause.
Given the sad realities of privacy and security in 2025, PM, email me <wrhagan AT earthlink DOT net>, or text me at FourZeroFour.8Zero8.84EightSix as to where to mail your tees.
Thanks.
Bill
