Like sand through an hour glass, so are our silent auctions. And these particular silent auctions only have a little over an hour's worth of sand left! At 2am PST, they will no longer be within your grasp!

The first of this pair of silent auctions is a Dinosaur Baby Quilt, donated by crafter Ms. Jesse!

A quilted baby blanket in various shades blue and grey, held aloft in front of a park bench

Measuring at an approximate 54inches by 55inches (137cm x 139cm), it was made using 100% quilters cotton in assorted blues and greys, two layers of cotton batting, and a plaid cotton flannel, it is very cozy for whatever use you put it to. There is even a chance it contains actual dinosaurs through the use of polyester thread.

Current high bid is $1,800.

Next, a themed Battletech Omega Shift Mercenary Star mini set, donated by BaachicLitNerd!

A set of five battle tank miniatures, painted in the colors of Omega shift. They are sitting on what is painted to look like a sandy base

The miniatures are plastic and painted in roughly two dozen shades of acrylic paints, and the base is wood with cork, epoxy, and PLA 3D printed elements, as well as various types of flocking. The shift-colored crystals on the mech bases are 3D printed resin. Best admired by young mechwarriors from afar due to small pieces.

Current high bid is $1,888.81.
