Width: 9" Length: 11"
Materials/Techniques: 100% cotton materials, machine pieced and hand quilted.
Artist Statement: One thing led to another with this quilt and it finished quite differently than what I had originally planned. It's more of a confused mess of color than the pretty little quilt that I originally envisioned. At one point during its construction I was so unhappy with it that I was going to throw it away. It was then that it occurred to me that it was the perfect Priority: Alzheimer's quilt. We don't cast aside our loved ones just because of an Alzheimer's diagnosis...we acknowledge the confusion and forge ahead the best we can which is exactly what I did with this quilt.
This quilt has Fast Finish Triangles.
