Thank you so much for your support. I made a Heartstrings lap quilt with a moda jelly roll. I did my first ever quilt label with a simple message. I have sewn solidly for three days and will post it off tomorrow. My son arrived safely back today and his GF is returning next week. Her brother's heart and liver were donated, so something good has come out of this appallingly sad event.
Thank you again.

Annie

I saw a nice small sized heart quilt yesterday on: http://temeculaquiltco.blogspot.com/This might work well for what has been suggested.

This is sooo sad, if people could only stop for a moment and realize life isn't so bad as to take your own life. But then we don't know the burdens they've carried. Only God knows. Also He knows your heart and the feelings you have for these precious people. She'll love the heart quilt, no matter what size or color she'll know it's from Your heart to hers. You are a wonderful woman for thinking of others....you will be blessed. Prayers for the family.....

I am so sorry for all you are going thru. There are a lot of free patterns out there but With Needle and Thread has a couple of great heart quilts

I don;t know that the design is important, after that kind of loss it is the comfort that means so much. Also remember to talk about him, even if it makes her cry she'll know someone else remembers him

Oops. I typed ideas I'm having to edit out. I'd missed the post in which you said you'd already made the quilt. I'm sure it will be cherished. How sweet of you to respond in this heartfelt way.

I am so sorry,
I am going to be making a wall hanging for the real parents of my adopted son that took his life last yr.
but I have a beautiful picture of him sitting on stairs looking off in the distent, so I will get it blown up and then cut it up and blow up each peice and then print it on fabric.
When the time is right I will do this for them.
GOD bless you and your family.
