I voiced a call to all the artists there interested in making a quilt for a good cause. These wonderful, caring artists raised their hands to say, "Yes, we'll do it!" Some had never attempted textile airbrushing before. A few of the artists are from Canada and the others are from the U.S. Our theme is Seasons/Wilderness/Wildlife. There couldn't be anything more warm and cozy than a quilt with animals and nature on it.

We then decided to choose a charity, and there are so many different charities that it was hard to pick one. It was unanimous on the decision for St. Jude Children's Hospital. It's hard to realize just how much these children go through struggling to be healthy. Their will to carry on is more than I could ever know, and they deserve the much-needed help to sustain a high quality hospital with excellent doctors, nurses, staff, and facilities.
