After months of meeting my AAQI-QAM Club goal by purchasing a Priority: Alzheimer's quilt, I finally made a quilt for August...yay!

Purchasing mini quilts to help fund Alzheimer's research is a no brainer, but I want to get back into making them to keep my $1,000 Promise ;-)
I used solid white for backing and binding this mini. I'm in the process of updating my AAQI page to include quilts I've purchased as well as made
| AAQI #6082 Flower Power by Susan Chambers |
Here's the one I purchased in July for my sister. It is titled Flower Power, but I call it Happy;-) It was the perfect quilt to give as a "happy" after our retreat weekend. I love reading the Artist's Statements of each quilt, and this one is no exception...it's like the quilter had Michelle and I in mind!
Have a Happy Monday!!!!
What a great way to use up leftover scraps and squeeze in sewing time when life gets busy!
ReplyDeleteGreat job! I'm loving the colors and quilting of your mini, and Happy is just that!
ReplyDeleteAll your news and your quilt is wonderful, Rene'. Did you hear that Ami is bringing 1,500 quilts to Houston this year...500 more than the last couple. Start quilting !!!
ReplyDeleteSend me your registration numbers and I'll add just about anyone's quilt to my AAQI Liberated Challenge page. I want to encourage and show off these quilts for everyone and for this awesome cause that I hope will save my aging brain from its horrible DNA!!!!
What a neat thing you are doing! Good job!
