AAQI again

Here's another little quilt for AAQI (Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative) that I made yesterday.  I think I have five completed now.  I hope to complete one more before sending the set off to AAQI.  
I do have to label them all and register them on the AAQI website.  I plan to do both of those this week while at the workshop.  I'll have evenings in a hotel with little to do, and since I'm not much for watching TV unless there's something else to do, I may get rather bored rather quickly.

This little darling is Sunbonnet Sue dressed in blue.  I did a very tight micro-stippling on the entire quilt, which took much longer than I expected.  Her bonnet is stippled in swirls and her dress is stippled in hearts. She's wearing lace around her bonnet and at the hem of her little plaid dress.  Isn't she just sweet?

Check out her bonnet.  There's a row of blue seed beads on the crease of her bonnet and a little mussie tussie of flowers on the back.
I'm hoping that there's someone who would love a miniature quilt with a cute little girl who happens to be very traditional.  I'm also hoping that that someone is willing to pay a nice little sum for said little quilt to help support the AAQI.

What do you think?  Won't this little girl help the good cause?
