    I made this quilt a number of years ago for my son in memory of a dear friend and firefighter who perished on 9/11. Unfortunately I don't have a picture of it quilted but here it is basted (one of the designs quilted in the border is the twin towers skyline). He cried when I presented it to him and he has it proudly hanging in his man cave.

    Amazing quilt. I have to say it is one of the most beautiful 9-11 quilts I have seen.

    Your quilt is amazing and much more professional looking than mine but still means so much to honor this day and the loved ones who lost their lives in 911 and since then related to disease and etc from working there.
