Come On Get Happy!

No, it's not déjà vu, I have shown a photo of this quilt before.  Come On Get Happy was my Priority: Alzheimer's Quilt for the month of March, but little did I know at the time how special this quilt would end up being.  Not only did I find out yesterday that this quilt has been purchased by my blogging friend, Rene' of Rene' Creates, but the purchase of this quilt put me over my goal of raising $1000.00 for the Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative! (Can I get just a little woohoo?)  Reaching this goal doesn't mean that my job is done...not by a long shot!  This was just the first $1000.00...I will continue to quilt for the AAQI until there is a cure for Alzheimer's Disease!

Thanks to all those who support the AAQI
by purchasing Priority: Alzheimer's Quilts
