Yes, that was one thousand one hundred forty-one little quilts that sold for a total of sixty-two THOUSAND dollars...record sales for the AAQI at the Houston show! Those are some totally awesome totals!

I would also imagine those numbers represent the amount of people now aware and/or are affected by the disease through a relative. It's nice to know quilters can achieve big things in a small way. Congratulations goes to you also for helping with this project.
That is amazing!
Awesome is right!!!!!
I think that is wonderful...and wonderful that you have helped to raise some of that money too!
Smiles,
