ALLIANCE FOR AMERICAN QUILTS 2011 CONTEST

Amy Milne, Executive Director of AAQ shares all 119 entries for their 2011 contest at the AAQ YouTube channel. Proceeds from the sale of these quilts support AAQ's mandate of documenting, preserving, and sharing our quilts.

This charming piece was made and donated by Sheila Rauen, who has contributed to all five contests!

You may also want to visit the AAQ Website for their tribute to Jean Ray Laury (March 2, 2011), a key figure in the American Quilt movement which began in the early 1970's. Her colorful quilts always earned a smile.
