Forget Me Not Quilt

Monday, May 11, 2009



Take a look at this!!! Meg Hawkey from Crabapple Hill Studio wanted to make a quilt that would be donated to the "Susan G. Komen for the Cure". This quilt will be raffled in order to raise funds to help find a cure for breat cancer.
Meg contacted me in the spring of 2008 and asked if I would participate. Below is the block I did.


The back of the quilt has the signatures of all the designers that contributed a block.
The quilting is by Debbi Trevino of Village Quiltworks. The photography is courtesy of Sandy Summers Russell of Summerland Photography.

The fabrics were donated by 8 fabric companies and 25 designers contributed blocks.
Want tickets??? Take a look at www.komen-houston.org/quilt.
More information is on their site, showing all the blocks, the designers, and most important, how to purchase the raffle tickets.


A great quilt for a great cause!

Alma

      You can't really say what is beautiful about a place, but the image of the place will remain vividly with you.

      Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.

      This revolution, the information revoultion, is a revolution of free energy as well, but of another kind: free intellectual energy. It's very crude today, yet our Macintosh computer takes less power than a 100-watt bulb to run it and it can save you hours a day. What will it be able to do ten or 20 years from now, or 50 years from now?

    The quilt's beauty is not only because of it exquisite design, but because of the prayers that went into it. I'm in tears. Simply stunning.

    The deployment type you mentioned is quite interesting. While using the codes, I always lack sufficient confidence. But when it comes to rewriting the algorithm, I do it well. I am totally gonna purchase this application. Great post folks!

    The real sin against life is to abuse and destroy beauty, even one's own even more, one's own, for that has been put in our care and we are responsible for its well-being.
