Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative

My little wall quilt is on its way to the Houston International Quilt Festival (Oct. 15-18), as part of the 1,000 quilts on display from the Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative. The goal is to raise money for Alzheimer's Disease research. You can check out this cause at http://alzquilts.org/
The title of my quilt is Tribute to Modigliani. And I made it to show the way triangles play an important role in the composition of this artist's work. Also, the orange color seems to be featured in some of his work. I made this quilt in honor of my husband, who is an artist, and who is suffering from Dementia with Lewy Bodies.
