Lisa T. passed along some information about a quilt show in Valparaiso, Indiana. Here is the link to the information if you are interested.
If you haven't heard about the Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative, it's worth taking a look at their website. This was started by Ami Simms to raise money for Alzheimer's research. Anyone can make a small (9 x 12 inch) quilt and donate it. Monthly auctions of the quilts are held on-line, and the money goes to fund research. They have raised over $350,00 since 2006. It is an entirely volunteer effort.
You can check out the rules for entries on their website.
