Materials/Techniques: I used a fabric printed with teddy bears and letters of the alphabet, separated by strips of bright-colored binding and then machine-quilted.
Artist Statement: These teddy bears come in pairs, so a young child might enjoy finding the pairs, and an older child could play a matching / memory game with them. I'd like to thank Jane Fiskal and Opal Vega for giving me fabric to use for this quilt, and Peggy Craig and Melody Rebenstorf for the buttons.

Dedication: Made in the hope that kids today won't have to deal with the tragedy that is Alzheimer's.
This quilt has Fast Finish Triangles.
