Artist's Statement: When I saw the original of this quilt (made by Pat Morris of Wyoming), I almost cried. I think it illustrates perfectly the progression of Alzheimer’s disease – little pieces of you disappear. There is still a central core of “you”, but everything doesn’t always connect anymore.
Judy BreeseDedication: For Mother, who sees me as a really good friend, one she can really count on. But who doesn’t always connect me to the daughter she used to have.
