Lewy


This quilt demonstrates components of the brain involved in Lewy Body Dementia.  It often is related to Parkinson's and hallucinations.  The person affected often realizes they are having hallucinations which occur in most cases of Lewy Body Dementia.  The abstract picture was printed on cotton and then metallic thread and glass beads were added.  A frame of was constructed using Peltex to give the quilt depth.
