Each year, SAQA invites each of its members to create a small 12 x 12 inch piece of art and donate it to the annual SAQA Benefit Auction<\/a>.  The auction has a dual purpose \u2013 to increase the recognition of quilts as art and quilters as artists, and to raise funds to support SAQA\u2019s exhibition programs and education outreach activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year there are over 440 pieces that have been donated by SAQA artists from around the world. You can see them all on the SAQA website here<\/a>. Think about which you might want to bid on when the auction opens on Sepember 13th. Or just enjoy browsing through hundreds of mini works of art!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is my seventh auction quilt!   Below are the six previous ones.  As you can see, I like to mix it up and use a variety of techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
