I have three small quilts in the AAQI auction right now. 7145, 7145 and 7184. They are individually dedicated to my mom, my Aunt Edith and Ann's Aunt Millie. Three wonderfully old women who had Alzhimer's Disease. My mom still is battling it, but losing ground each day.
As you know, the Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative auctions small quilts during the first 10 days of each month. Well, our August online quilt auction will be a "hum dinger." We're going to be auctioning off 20 quilts from the first traveling exhibit, "Alzheimer's: Forgetting Piece by Piece." The selection includes quilts by Diane Gaudynski, Sue Nickels, Mary Stori, Marsha McCloskey, Nancy Brenan Daniel, Melody Crust, Mary Stori, Elsie Campbell, Debbie Bowles and others. Please see our home page for details: http://www.alzquilts.org/

If you can think of any other way to promote this very special auction have at it: web page, FaceBook, guild newsletter, other online groups you belong to....it's all good.
Again, thank you for helping us make a difference, one quilt at a time.....or in this particular case, one blog at a time.
