Soaring Sales for AAQI: All Because of YOU! Posted on August 23, 2012 Every month Debbie Chenail (AAQI treasurer) and I sit down to update the Show Me The Money page on the Alzheimer’s Art Quilt Initiative website.

Well there is progress on that one! AND I even got another baby set done. I can hardly believe it myself :)...
