    Default Purple and White the colors for Alzheimer's
    I made this purple and white quilt to raffle for Central Virginia Walk to End Alzheimer's in honor of my Mother and in memory of my Mother-in-law. We raised $1200 to help find an end to a terrible disease.
    I plan to make another one this year to raffle also. I'm looking for a pattern to use, any suggestions.
    *Compliments to a local quilter that did the quilting as a donation, was I lucky it really made the quilt pop.

    I absolutely love this quilt. And the detail in quilting is beautiful. Your free motion design in the quilting looks fabulous, and the design is so intriguing and fun to look at. GREAT JOB.
