I want to make three quilts for the Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative. They want very small wall hangings to auction off every month to help fund alzheimer's research. This is a great thing.

Read the rules and help out!!!!

One out of five people have been diagnosed with AD (Alzheimer's Disease). My husband is one of them. He is only 67 and only 10% of those diagnosed with AD are this young. (I don't think that includes those with "early onset" AD. They can be diagnosed as early as 40.)

As the baby boomers age, this is becoming an epidemic.

Read about this project at this web site: http://www.alzquilts.org/

Thanks from the bottom of my heart for any quilts donated for this cause.
