Palm Beach is Up for Auction!

























A couple months ago, I started making small art quilts and donating them to the Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative.  Each month the AAQI auctions off 26 of the donated quilts.  This month (October 1-10) one of my quilts (Palm Beach) was chosen to be part of the auction!  Here's the link if you'd like to look at the quilts availabe for auction this month, and click on Palm Beach if you'd like to see my quilt's auction page. 

The Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative™ (www.AlzQuilts.org) is a national, grassroots charity whose mission is to raise awareness and fund research. The AAQI auctions and sells donated quilts, and sponsors a nationally touring exhibit of quilts about Alzheimer's. The AAQI has raised more than $591,000 since January 2006.

That's a little gem Jean. I will be eagerly looking for its contribution to the cause--go auction!
