Width: 8.5" Length: 11"
Materials/Techniques: Made in a bargello style out of cotton fabrics.
Artist Statement: I made this quilt at the urging of my two sisters-in-law who have been quite involved in AAQI. I can't help but feel that during the beginning stages of Alzheimer's, the affected person feels a little off kilter when trying to remember things or just going about their daily lives.
Dedication: This quilt is dedicated to my father-in-law, Jerry Wiessner. You left us all too soon but I feel blessed having become part of this wonderful family.
This quilt has Fast Finish Triangles.
