Hopes and Dreams Quilt Challenge for ALS

"I was diagnosed with ALS November 30, 2012. I read about your quilts for ALS patients on the ALS forum and I want you to know that it touched by heart very much. When our bodies start to waste away we get cold so easily. To be covered with a warm work of love is priceless. Thank you for sewing such love, care and support to those of us who are living with this beast."


Blessings,
Linda.

ALS is a devastating disease that leaves a person's body paralyzed while their mind and spirit are alert and active. By participating in the Hopes & Dreams Quilt Challenge you help raise awareness about ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease), bring warmth and hope to the lives of ALS patients, and also help raise much needed funds for research for a treatment and a cure.

Donated quilts are given to ALS patients or used to raise research money for ALS by being photographed, displayed, auctioned or raffled. In addition to contributing you quilt to a wonderful cause -- ALL donated quilts are eligible to win exciting and wonderful prizes.

The Hopes & Dreams Quilt Challenge is non-judged and all donated quilts are entered into general prize drawings. There are also incredible prize packages for winners in seven (7) different categories.
