The Alzheimer's Initiative's monthly auction has opened today and will run for the first 10 days in October. Follow the link below to view some wonderful little pieces - all proceeds go toward the Alzheimer's Initiative. Not only is it spending for a great cause, but acquiring a wonderful piece of art. These small pieces - no larger than 9 x 12, have varied themes and because of their size can find a place almost anywhere in one's home.
I am pleased that my piece - "Sh'rooms" was chosen for the auction this month. It was created with all hand-dyed fabrics, beading, bobbin work and screening. The "beaded dots" around the edge is my favorite edge treatment and one I learned from Mary Stori who is an excellent beader and fiber artist. I seem to use this edging on a lot of things. My newest Alzheimer's piece will have it also.
So follow the link and click on the bright pink word - auction which will bring you to the auction quilts page. You'll love what you see.
I love posts and auctions like this! I have been telling all my friends how important Alzheimer’s patient care, it is something I'm very passionate about. Thank you for sharing this with us!
