Quilt For A Cause News

Check out Quilt for a Cause on YouTube.  Thanks to DJ and his wife, you can view some of the quilts donated to the Quilt for a Cause Silent Auction hanging on selected hallways of the Tucson Medical Center.  This is their way of “giving” to Quilt for a Cause” since they were unable to make a donation of quilts.  Take a minute to view this wonderful video on YouTube….http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4SDDCP1zSc (no longer available for viewing)
