I worked at St. John's in Springfield, MO on second shift. On Wednesday they had a great spaghetti dish but the Saturday's spaghetti - not so much. Many of the quilts shown were made to raise money for Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative. http://www.alzquilts.org/

Maggie meets Foxy
This is a quilt for Maggie who died last week at age seven. I printed the picture, thread painted it and then touched up the color with acrylic paint. I thought Foxy needed a bandana. I learned that it is harder to thread paint a smooth hair dog then a curly one. I think thread lighter or close to the color of the dog probably works best. I used three layers of trapunto for this quilt. RIP Mags.....
