Forever (For Old Lady Sally) is a 2006 print by Gee's Bend quilter Loretta Pettway Bennett. A quilter, Bennett begins by creating a sampler quilt in the style of the quilts of Gee's Bend, which uses recycled household and thrift store clothing. Collaborating with Paulson Press (Berkley), an innovative etching technique is used to transfer the quilt to an etching plate. The plate is coated with wax and treated with acid, which pulls the color from the sampler quilt and produces prints of great detail, rendering individual threads, seams, folds, and variation in color, and results in a softground spitbite aquatint etching on paper. Forever (For Old Lady Sally) depicts a colorful composition of blues, greens, red, pink, yellow, and brown colored squares and rectangles. Together, these blocks form a large rectangle that measures 35.75” x 50.75”, framed.

Forever (For Old Lady Sally) was acquired by Eskenazi Health as part of a re-imagining of the organization's historical art collection and to support "the sense of optimism, vitality and energy" of its new campus in 2013. In response to its nationwide request for proposals, Eskenazi Health received more than 500 submissions from 39 states, which were then narrowed to 54 finalists by an independent jury. Each of the 54 proposals was assigned an area of the new hospital by Eskenazi Health's art committee and publicly displayed in the existing Wishard Hospital and online for public comment; more than 3,000 public comments on the final proposals were collected and analyzed in the final selection. Forever (For Old Lady Sally) is credited "in honor of Grandmother Mae, Lisa E. Harris, M.D."

Forever (For Old Lady Sally) is currently displayed in the yellow elevator corridor on the 2nd floor of Sidney & Lois Eskenazi Hospital.
