Designer: Original designMaterials/Techniques: This little quilt is all cotton and it was machine pieced and machine quilted. The fabrics are batiks. I don't work with them very often, but I was drawn to the warmth of these fabrics. With just the houses, it was incomplete, so I added some buttons and a little monkey from my button hoard.
Artist Statement: I am inspired to make little quilts by the stories of the caregivers. As Alzheimer's takes away a patient's personality, it is the family and friends who suffer most. Only research can change this.

Dedication: This little quilt is dedicated to Walkswithwolves, my online quilting friend, who is caring for her husband, who has recently been diagnosed with Alzheimer's.
This quilt has Fast Finish Triangles.
This quilt earned $50.00 for the AAQI.
