Mary Emma,
Thank you so much for helping me spread the word!
I’m happy to report that the printing bill is paid off, so we can donate $18 from each $20 book sale to Alzheimer’s research for those copies purchased on my web site. (They are also available at most venues that host the exhibit, but sometimes they can use the books to earn money to offset the exhibit expenses.)
There is also a movement afoot to get these amazing quilts on Oprah, if you’d like to help, email me: amisimms@aol.com
