For Interest to Quilters with Caregiving Tasks…Another All About Alzheimer’s Carnival
The second the All About Alzheimer’s Carnivals at Alzheimer’s Notes, where I’m a co-blogger with Liz Lewis, is up and running. It’s a platform for you to write your thoughts and feelings about Alzheimer’s and caregiving if you’re involved in these areas. You also might tie quiltmaking into it.
My daughter and I both were involved in the care of my mom when she had Alzheimer’s. Beth also made a lap quilt for Mother as a Christmas gift. Mother would rub her hands over it and remark about the “pretty colors.”
Quiltmaking had been part of Mother’s life from her childhood, and she encouraged me in this art. Because of her, Beth and I are part of the line of Trails End Quilters…the generations who made quilts in our family.
Entering carnivals (collections of articles about particular topics hosted at one blog) proves to be very enjoyable, I’ve found. Perhaps you have a story to share relating to Alzheimer’s, whether it involves quilting or not.
If you’ve never entered a carnival, simply follow the directions by clicking on the link above. I’ve also posted some suggestions for carnivals at my Home Biz Notes blog. You might want to take a look at these.

Another enjoyable aspect of carnivals is reading the numerous entries. So if you don’t enter (and if you do), check out Liz’s post at Alzheimer’s Notes on January 19, when she’ll publish all the entries.
