A rally and press conference was held on Tuesday afternoon April 10th at the Daley Center in downtown Chicago to call attention to the fact that the state of Illinois is one of fourteen states yet to pass the Equal Rights Amendment.
The Equal Rights Amendment states that: "Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any state on account of sex". The E.R.A, would provide legal protection for women in various ways including gender-based violence, equal pay, and pregnancy discrimination.
70% of America's poor are women. This also affects the children who depend on them.
Women make up roughly half the workforce and constitute two-thirds of minimum wage workers.
Women earn 79 and 44% of what men make adjusted for their race. The latter figure applies more to blacks and Hispanics.
Women are twice as likely to retire in poverty as men.
Passing the E.R.A. would ensure that employers could not give women less pay for doing the same work as a man.

Too often the demure, subtle beauty of the female cardinal goes unnoticed. Too often the brightly colored male catches the observers eye. This lady's good looks provide some needed balance.

Just over a year ago, I challenged myself to make a charity quilt each month for the next year and do it from my stash. I did it! Ten of the twelve quilts were approximately 36" x 48"; a size which made it easier, but, nevertheless, I completed 12 charity quilts!
In addition to making the quilts, I created a free pattern for each of them. You can find them all under "Tutorials" then "Charity Challenge" on my website.

Do you think this is a good shot for the contest?
