Design Source - Description | I made this little basket as an Alzheimer's Priority Quilt in honor of my aunt Karen, who died of Alzheimer's several years ago. She was married to my mother's 2nd oldest brother. Last summer, when TQS was taping in Boulder, those of us who were attending a taping were asked to make an Alzheimer's Priority Quilt so they could be presented to Ami during the taping of her show. I was not able to turn mine in at that time, because I was still waiting to receive my permission from Gwen Marston. If only she had email! I did mail my little quilt off as soon as I received Gwen's written permission in the mail--she seemed pleased that I wanted to use her inspiration! |
