Don't miss the June auction of Priority: Alzheimer's Quilts at www.alzquilts.org. There are 25 itty-bitty quilts raising money for Alzheimer's research, including one signed by Ricky Tims, along with 35 other teachers and designers from the world of quilting. The auction will end at noon on June 11.

While at the site, take time to purchase a copy of "Alzheimer's: Forgetting Piece by Piece" by Ami Simms. This book features the quilts from the traveling exhibit of the same title. As with everything the Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative does, all profit is donated to Alzheimer's research. The AAQI total is nearing $70,000! Ami is traveling with the exhibit and many "Priority Quilts" to sell at the National Quilters Association show in Columbus, Ohio this week. If you are in the area, stop by and give her a hug!
