My daughter found this request on esty. I am haven't done anything more then read it. But I thought I would post it and maybe someone could help. So sad.
Here is the link to the request on esty. http://www.etsy.com/alchemy/request....49&action=view Baby Clothes Keepsake Quilt posted 1/12/2011 , expires 2/2/2011 My 10 month old daughter passed away on Dec 26, 2010. I'm just now able to look at all the clothes she used to wear. I couldn't bring myself to box them up or sell/give them away. So I have decided to make a keepsake quilt out of them, but I don't have the time, patience or enough tears to make them. I'm hoping someone can make a quilt out of them. I would like 2 maybe 3 made out of them if possible. I wanted one to be made in to a throw size, and another where I can hang it up on the wall. I wasn't sure on the price, so I just listed whatever, and I couldn't think of a proper and reasonable deadline. Please message me if you're interested so that we can discuss further details. Thank you. Materials: Tags: Ideal price: $250.00 Deadline: Jul 23, 2011 Quantity: 2 Ship To: Dallas, TX 75243 United States |
Thank you for sharing.

Being the mother who has lost a child way to early I wish I had the confidence in my own quilting to do this for her. My biggest fear is that it would not turn out PERFECT. I hope she can find someone (even if it is or isn't here) that will do this and do it RIGHT. Not just throw the clothes together to make a quick buck (it looks like she is willing to pay whatever the quilter wanted).

Having lost two children myself, I certainly empathize with her....it is SO HARD--and the pain never goes away. You just get so you can function again....

I decided to send her a message. My heart really feels pulled to help this woman. So I explained to her that I am a new quilter, and what my limitations are, and offered to do her quilts for only the cost of shipping and that I will supply all other needed materials. Whether she requests me to do it or not it up to her...I'll update if I hear from her.
