    I am sorry for the pain this family will have to go through. When our friends daughter was driving the car that resulted in the death of her best friend I felt a need to make a quilt too. I made a Yellow Brick Road in soft colors. She took this quilt with her as she continued her education, but has had to move away from here in order to move on with her life. Any quilt you decide, will be precious.

    Thank you so much. He passed yesterday. There is no way that I can imagine their pain. I have started a muted heart quilt.

    Thank you again

    I am so sorry to hear about this tragedy
    I also like the idea of hearts beacause we never forget the people we love they are always in our hearts
    many blessings on your family and friends

    I think I would make a log cabin
    Don't think I'd make a memory quilt - for a very long time they are hard on the people who have had the loss

    I think there are a lot of wonderful ideas here, and I think you are a sweet person to make her a special quilt. Bless you.

    That is such a sad situation. I know she will love whatever you decide.
