Now on to the exciting topic of Tonya Ricucci's book Word Play Quilts. I'm the proud owner of a copy. It's so well written. And the illustrations are excellent. Tonya, it's a triumph! I'm sure that it will be a popular book with quilters, and words will be sprouting up on all sorts of quilts. Furthermore, the book has a great deal of humor, and it's entertaining. That's a big achievement for a technical book. For anyone who has been in the Antarctic for the past few months, Tonya's blog is http://lazygalquilting.blogspot.com/

Dove quilt
This is the Dove quilt completed. Now I have to do the application process at http://www.alzquilts.org/index.html because this quilt is to be donated to the great cause of medical research to find help for those suffering with Alzheimer's Disease. It took six hours to make. It's an original design of mine. And I hand appliqued, embroidered and quilted it. But it's quite tiny, under 9 by 12 inches. The embroidery stitches are blanket stitch and fly stitch.

Way to go, Roz!
Beautiful Rozzie!
Beautiful!
Ihaven't had a chance to read it properly yet, just flicked through and looked at the quilts.
Roz, your dove is so sweet. I gifted my TOnya books and look forward to getting my own and curling up for an afternoon and revelling in Tonya's gift to the quilting world!
hurrah for making an original design and for contributing to AAQI. thank you for the kind words - you are very sweet!
Love that dove! One of my good friend's now has Alzheimers, such an awful disease.
oh this is so nice, love that tail!
Doesn't it feel great to be able to donate your work to a great cause?
