Red Coleus ready for SAQA Benefit Auction
I just finished my small piece, Red Coleus, for the Studio Art Quilt Associates (SAQA) Benefit Auction.
This year’s auction will begin on Monday, September 20 at 2 p.m. Eastern time. Each piece will start at $750, and go down in price each day, to $550, $350, $250, $150 and $75. Last year, 235 members donated quilts that raised $47,325 for SAQA.
Red Coleus is about 12" square, and is a quilted wholecloth painted piece. Here’s a detail shot:
