I made a bereavement quilt for my nephew. He was all of 7" long at 21 weeks' gestation. Since there's Irish on both sides of the family, I used shamrock fabric and also cut up my favorite green blouse. I wanted baby David to be wrapped in something special to me. I stitched his birth date, name and the words "We love you dearly, David" on the lower front corner. My sister was really touched by the quilt. She put it in a memory box with other little things that he never got to wear or play with.
