In honor of National Alzheimer’s Awareness Month four small quilts by world renowned quilters Hollis Chatelain, John Flynn, Becky Goldsmith, and Sue Nickels will be auctioned to benefit the Alzheimer’s Art Quilt Initiative(AAQI). The no-holds-barred, knock-down, drag-out, head-to-head, quilt-to-the-death (not really), grudge match will be held November 1-10, 2009 in the AAQI “Smackdown Auction Arena.”
The 10-day online silent auction is all about bragging rights—and raising awareness and money to fight Alzheimer’s disease. Click here for more info.
